Works: Trees Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

T1 - Lime - Reduce the height by 3.5m and prune to a compact, rounded shape to improve light and structure a tree with good amenity value that is not overdominant; T2 - Magnolia - prune to shape the tree, reducing overlong branch tips by 0.5m; T3 - Robinia - Thin the upper crown by 15%, remove epicormic growth and dead wood, crown lift by removing the lowest lateral branch; T4 - Holly - Fell to ground level. The tree is too close to the boundary wall and the new garden design requires alternate use of this planting bed; T5 - Cherry - neighbours tree. Reduce overlong branches by 1.5m and remove dead wood. Formative pruning. This work is to improve the form and appearance of the tree.
