Planning application
Beech Croft Underwood Drive Rawdon Leeds LS19 6LA
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 Sycamore - Remove to ground level. Neighbours complaining of a lack of light to their properties for a number of years. The tree looks to have been coppiced in it's past resulting in it growing multi stemmed with tight unions and impacted bark at the base making it a cause for concern for safety reasons. T2 Conifer - Remove to ground level. Again the residents of St Josephs Court would like this removed for light reasons.

Woodlands Cottage Underwood Drive Rawdon Leeds LS19 6LA
T1 Lime - Works would be to reduce the height by 3m from 18m to 15m and radially all round so no branch is shorter than 4m. This will compact the tree and remove the outer dead branches creating a crown lower with live growth. Works are on the grounds of safety and the trees long term life. Early signs of die back in the upper canopy which is common with this species.
