Planning application
Land near Leominster Footpath 136 Leominster Herefordshire HR6 8NS
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
Two trees have been identified for coppicing. A willow on the east side which overshadows a pear tree. A maple, adjacent to the sculpture, which overshadows the orchard and dwarfs the sculpture. Pollarding of the willow tree in the north east corner and clearance of new growth around it so that it has room for regeneration.
