Planning application
The Malt House, Parsonage Farm Wellington Hereford Herefordshire HR4 8AZ
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
ALDER tree affects the light when in full foliage. It sheds a lot of leaves and small pods throughout the year causing a dangerous slip hazard. The guttering also gets blocked necessitating contractors to attend due to the height of the barn. To reduce the height of the treeby 5 metres, prune the sides and reshape.
