1 Ebrington Close Gloucester GL4 3GD

Decided Gloucester 20/00344/TPO Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.

Proposal

1 x Horse chestnut, this is the only tree at this location This was last cut in 2013 and it has since grown back to at least and probably exceeding the original size. It now towers above mine and my neighbours house. It is over my back door and garden which is very hazardous when conkers are dropping from a great height. Conkers drop onto my roof causing disturbed sleep and risk damaging tiles. It also over hangs the public footpath resulting in the same hazard for pedestrians and is starting to engulf the street lamp on the same pavement. The tree currently measures 21-22 metres high and a diameter of 13 metres. I would like to reduce the tree to 16 metres high and crown diameter to 8 meters.

    29 Kingsmead Gloucester GL4 5DY

    Oak tree covered by an area TPO. A reduction is required to preserve the surrounding properties due to the tree encroaching on boundary gardens. The roots of the tree are already disturbing foundations and causing heave. Suggested reduction of 30%. The impacted tree does not appear to be labelled (or this cannot be identified from documents seen), aerial view of the tree provided. The tree sits within the boundary of 29 Kingsmead, encroaching the neighbouring properties, 47 & 48 Kennett Gardens.
