A larch tree towers over the property at the rear garden. In recent storms a large neighbouring beech tree had come down and caused a wreckage which resulted in damages to a number of trees and property. The resident has concerns that this Larch tree will be next , and at worst fall on the house. We are requesting consent to fully remove the Larch tree.
