Planning applications in Exeter, August 2026

11 Devonshire Place Exeter EX4 6JA

The tree is a silver birch. We would like to carry out "crown reduction" reducing the height of the tree from ~10m to ~7m. Similarly, we would like to reduce the spread of the crown at the rear to reduce the amount of overhang with our rear neighbours. We will keep the left-right spread similar, only carrying out "crown thinning" in this respect to ensure the tree does not block too much light from our neighbours' gardens and our own.

11 Devonshire Place Exeter EX4 6JA

The tree is a Cypress tree located at the front of 11 Devonshire place, to the right hand side when looking at the house. We would like to replace the tree with a native tree species - either a rowan or a cherry - in order to provide flowers for pollinators in the spring/summer and food for birds in the winter. We would like to do the removal in late (~Nov) 2026, well after the bird breeding season, in order to plant the new tree in early 2027 after the last frosts. The tree itself sits at the boundary of a conservation area.

Glencoe Lyndhurst Road Exeter EX2 4PA

T1 - Beech - Reduce the height by 2.5 metres, and shorten back the sides by approx. 1-1.5 metres, to leave a balanced form. Reasons for work - Health and safety factors. The tree has been randomly dropping branches where residents regularly walk. The thinning crown makes it more likely for the tree to deteriorate further and continue shedding branches. - Reduction work is likely to affect the vigour of the tree to some degree. Wounds can take longer to heal, and sun scorch can affect the bark when there is less leaf cover. However, the surrounding trees provide a degree of protection in this case. - Diameter cut sizes should be limited to 9-12cm topping cuts, and 6 cm lateral branch cuts. Natural target pruning should be practiced. 2nd to 3rd order growth should be pruned where possible, and cuts made no greater than a third diameter of the parent branch.
