  Notification of intent to Fell No. 1 Tree and removal of conifer hedge within a Conservation Area. T1 - Fell large conifer tree in front garden adjacent to mini roundabout at the junction of Coles Lane and Hayes End Lane. This will be in conjunction with removal of a nearby conifer hedge , both of which have overgrown our boundary wall by some distance. The combined works will improve visibility at the junction for car drivers and pedestrians- the junior school is opposite us. We will replace with low fencing and a lower mixed hedge which will be easier to maintain and set back from the wall and fence.
