Planning application
25/05231/TR
To The Rear Of 15 Hall Rise Bramhope Leeds LS16 9JG
Proposal
T1 Horse Chestnut - Reduce in height by 6m, from 18m to 12m and laterally to balance the crown back to previous points of reduction. The tree has previously been reduced, and this application seeks to maintain the existing management regime. Ongoing cyclical reduction helps preserve the form, health, and safety of the tree, while minimising long-term stress. T2 and T3 Willow Saplings - Fell. At their current stage, the saplings do not yet offer notable landscape or amenity value. Removal at this point avoids unnecessary disruption and minimises impact on visual amenity or habitat. T4 Sycamore - Crown reduction by up to 2-3m to secondary growth points as indicated on the photographs provided. The tree has grown to a substantial height and spread, and is beginning to dominate the garden space below. The proposed reduction will help maintain the tree at a proportionate scale within its setting and prevent it from becoming overbearing, it will improve light levels and the overall amenity of the garden, without compromising the health or character of the tree.

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.
