Proposal

G.1 Holly - Reduce to 1m in height as hedge. T.1 & T.2 Cedar - Remove select limbs as illustrated in supporting photos (to open up the much used space below), crown lift to 4m, by removing 2 to 3 branches and smaller sub-laterals & reduce back profile of Cedar by up to 3m. T.3 Horse Chestnut - Lateral reduction to provide 2m clearance from school. T.4 Reduce principal branch of Sycamore adjacent to neighbouring school back to 1m above woodpecker hole due to cordwood damage and necrotic bark developing. T.8 Cedar - Crown lift to 4.5m from ground level. T. Horse Chestnut - Crown lift to 4m from ground level. T.9 Oak - Fell (small Oak crowding & suppressing adjacent Cedar).

About trees applications

How this application type works

Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.
