Planning application
2 North Villas Montpellier Gloucester GL1 1LD
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
See plan for details, trees to remain in place marked in green, those we are requesting to remove marked in purple/ red. 1. Remove 3 x leylandii, planted too close together, and preventing the 2 broadleaves in front of them from leafing properly. Aim to replace with 1 apple tree in the corner. 2. Remove 2 out of 3 silver birches to improve light, leaving one in place (birches to be moved in purple ink, birch to stay in green) 3. Remove beech at the back of the garden: overcrowding, will eventually be HUGE. 4, Remove broadleaf evergreen at north end of plan, to increase light to lawn area and beds.

The tree sits within the boundary of 29 Kingsmead, encroaching the neighbouring properties, 47 & 48 Kennett Gardens.
