Sketch plan: 62 EGR Dead Tree Location The cherry tree in our garden last blossomed in the spring of 2024, but then soon after dropped its leaves and has been bare since. We consulted a tree surgeon last year who advised the tree was dead, likely as a result of inadequate available soil nutrients for the tree, given its location in a small terrace house walled garden. We left the tree a year to see if it would recover, but in 2025 it did not blossom and has remained without leaf. A second tree surgeon was consulted recently and confirmed the tree is dead and advised it should be removed. The tree?s branches overhang a public footpath and neighbouring gardens. It is approximately 3 metres to the top of the canopy. We would like to remove the remains of the tree entirely before it becomes a safety issue for us, neighbours or those using the public walkway.

Underwood Cottage Balls Farm Road Ide Exeter EX2 9RA

Previously applied and had work accepted on application 25/1193/CAT. However upon another site visit, I've realised, I made a mistake and identified the wrong tree. I've spoken to someone called Emily in the planning department and she advised submitting another correct application. Requesting a full dismantle and removal of a Quercus Ilex (Holm Oak) within the property, with urgency. As casing structure issues to a grade 2 listed cottage. The Quercus is fairly mature, with a gradual lean towards a grade 2 listed building and listed out building (garage). The canopy is now within very close proximity to the building, this however is not the main concern. The Quercus has grown in a very space between a listed cob wall, outbuilding and a grade 2 listed building to the rear of underwood cottage. The Quercus is causing significant issues to the foundations of the main rear wall on the grade 2 listed cottage to the rear of underwood cottage. The cottage is occupied by a 92 year old house bound man. A builder has visited the property and spoken to Mr.Castle (underwood cottage) and owner of the Quercus Ilex. The root plate has caused structure issues to the main supporting pillars holding up the rear of the cottage. The building has huge concerns and has been ackro propped to support the walls as seen in photographs attached. No work can be undertaken to these walls, whilst the Quercus is in place. As it will keep causing issues with its root plate. Pictures of the supporting walls and damage have been added in supporting documents. The Quercus is also moving listed cob wall, which has been repointed multiple times, but almost to point where repairs won't be possible.
