Refused Hinckley and Bosworth 26/00652/TPO Trees

Works: Trees

Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.

Proposal

T1 Lime - Crown reduce by 30% 4-5mtrs lower than last pollard point. The tree has been pollarded many times it is now just a mass of green and my client and neighbours are all losing light but gaining a ton of leaf in the winter. The aim is to create a new smaller crown that wont be such a blot of green

    Church Cottage Wood Lane Cadeby Nuneaton Leicestershire CV13 0AU

    Sycamore (T2) Raise canopy to approx. 6m to south only whilst retaining a natural canopy form. Reason: Allow light to rear garden under the canopy and above the roof of the property behind. So plants have more chance of growing / enjoyment of property. As the tree has increased in size the impact on light to adjecent properties has increased, thus requiring some pruning to keep a good balance.
