    4 Heathville Road Gloucester GL1 3DP

    This application is being submitted on behalf of my elderly mother-in-law. 1. Removal of a small Yew tree. This is located at the boundary wall between the property and the public pavement. Thr main trunk of the Yew tree grows almost horizontally from the foot of dwarf boundary wall towards the main property. The dimensions of the Yew tree 3.2m* 3m wide and aprox 4m high. As the tree is located 1.5m from the propertys foul water drain and 2m to the public sewer there is concern that the roots will damage the foul water drains. In addition as the root system is expected to encrouch on the main property it is likely to cause damage to the foundations of the building. (Note there is a cellar directly under this part of the property increasing the risk of property damage.) Further the tree roots will impact the integrity of the boundary wall and potemntially the public pavement. 2. Removal of a Bay tree. This tree is aprox 10 -15m tall and located within 3m of the property rear, and within 0.3m located of boundary wall with the neighbouring property. The neighbouring property is around 1m from this wall. The primary concern is the impact the root system has on the two properties and the boundary wall plus the reduction of light to the neighbours property.

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.
