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.

G1 Large leylandii hedge - Reduce in height by 20ft, from 40ft to 20ft and prune the side back as much as possible keeping them green - The hedge has become excessively tall and unmanageable for a domestic setting.

Works will improve light levels within the garden and reduce shading to neighbouring properties. The intention is to retain a healthy, green boundary hedge in keeping with the character of the area. T1 Fir - Reduce in height by 10ft, from 30ft to 20ft - Alleviate shading and light loss to the garden and adjacent property. Retain the tree?s natural form and amenity value within the conservation area while managing its growth appropriately for its setting.
