SIDE (access road): ONE dead Elm (T1)(ht.12m) FELL. Reason: the tree has died, overhangs high usage access roads. A 4m monolith will be left with ivy as habitat. The tree is in a hedgerow so there is no space to plant a replacement. REAR (no.2): ONE Sycamore (T2)(ht.10m) CROWN REDUCE HEIGHT by 2m from 10m to ht.8m. Reason: reduction to shape canopy, pruning to suitable points and maintaining natural aesthetic, to improve light conditions, reduce blocking of light to solar panels, lateral spread to remain untouched. Informative A: the retention of dead elm (T1) as a 4m high safe standing monolith with ivy is greatly appreciated for wildlife and biodiversity. If possible allow a replacement sapling elm or other species to develop elsewhere along the access road boundary hedge. .
