Planning application
42 Westgate Guiseley Leeds LS20 8HL
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 - Remove. Tree is over 25ft tall now and the tree is killing off/impacting on my beech hedge which runs the length of my rear garden and the branches are now starting to protrude over onto my neighbours garden. My concern is that it will keep growing and would create a future risk due to the height.
