Winter Cottage Mathon Road Colwall Malvern Herefordshire WR13 6ER
Oak (T7), Cypress (T8), Horse Chestnut (T9), Swedish Whitebeam (T10), Cypress (T11), Himalayan Cedar (T12), Red Horse Chestnut (T13). These trees are close to boundary hedge adjacent the access drive. As they grow, their lower branches overhang the driveway and obstruct the access for larger vehicles. THE WORK PROPOSED, is to remove the overhanging branches to maintain a clear height of about 3.5m above the access drive. REASON: To maintain access for cars, vans and lorries especially in wet weather or winter weather conditions when rain or snow and ice causes some branches to sag and obstruct access.
