Planning application
Beracah House Gloucester Road Tutshill Chepstow NP16 7DH
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
Fell 1x Weeping Ash of DFTPO 152 (A1) due to presence of a fungal bracket around the base of the tree which now covers half the circumference of the trunk. Significant swelling of trunk to 2.5 metres high from ground level, with ring-cracking of the bark above the swelling. Vitality in the crown of tree is poor with dead branches and a thin crown. Minimal response growth higher up, if it snaps the tree could fall onto the adjacent footpath, the road or the property.
