Planning application

9 Bearcroft Weobley Hereford Herefordshire HR4 8TA

Decided Herefordshire, County of P224220/K Works to Trees in a Conservation Area

Works: Trees Small domestic

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

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

Proposal

To remove an existing truncated bush of combined Cypress and Laurel approx 3m high. The bush stands tightly into the corner of the front garden of 9 Bearcroft and is extremely difficult to maintain due to its location. It is also pushing out the fencing panel between no.9 and no.10. It is also obstructing access to a gate in the front fence line. There is little that can be done with it as the cypress is old and thick at the base so it needs taking out and new hedging replanting. It is intended to use an experienced landscape gardener toremove it.

    1 x Field Maple - proposed works to reduce crown by 50% (as seen annexed at report) to return tree to being structurally sound. The necessity for crown reduction arises from the trunk having forked/bifurcated many years ago with the result that the weight of the spread crown pulls the crown apart rendering the tree to be unsound. Crown reduction and subsequent maintenance will enable the tree to be reclassified as sound with the result that insurance can beobtained and there is no further risk to persons using the estate road/pavement nor to occupiers of the dwelling.
