Proposal
C1 Conifer - Urgent removal, tree requires dismantling as it is both a risk and a compromised tree. Leaning, which had a major stem fail 6 months ago is currently leaning significantly on a neighbouring conifer. B1 Beech - Crown lift the beech to a height of 5m to allow light underneath the canopy H1 Holly - 1m height reduction and 0.5m lateral reduction on the crown. Tree has grown rapidly in the last few years and given the proximity to the house the client would like the canopy of this tree to be managed and reduced a little.

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.
