  Cypress trees (T1, T2, T3) full removal in garden - I am writing to request permission to remove the trees located in my garden for the following reasons: The trees are situated very close to the main building, and according to the structural engineer's assessment, their root systems may affect the foundation and potentially cause cracks or other structural damage. The trees significantly block natural light, making the interior of the house darker and colder, especially during winter months. I am planning a future extension, and the proposed foundation would be located exactly where the trees currently stand. The trees shed a large amount of leaves and debris, which frequently block the gutters and drains, causing maintenance issues. The roots are beginning to lift and damage the garden paving, which poses a safety risk and increases maintenance costs. The proximity of the trees to the house increases the risk of damage during strong winds or storms. For the reasons listed above, I kindly request approval to remove the trees in a safe and responsible manner. Thank you for your consideration.

  FELL POPLAR Arborista Ltd (Tree Surgery Quote QU-0303, dated 16 September 2025), the recommendation is for full removal of the tree - Removal is necessary because the roots will continue to expand and pose a risk of subsidence if the tree is only reduced. Ongoing reduction would be temporary, as the tree regenerates quickly and root activity would persist underground. PURSUANT TO CONDITION 13 OF PP REF: 95/1504 DATED 2.2.96
