Planning application

Manor Farm 31 Main Street Branston Grantham NG32 1RU

Awaiting decision Melton 26/00918/ENQT5D

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

Please see attached location plan of the tree, denoted here by T288. The tree has had a recent significant limb failure and presents as having several poor unions. Please see photos of the fallen limb. The tree also has a significant cavity shown in the pictures attached. The tree is in close proximity to an adjacent building and the owner is naturally concerned. The proposed works are to see a heavy reduction of 6-7 metres off the sides and top, retaining as much internal growth as possible.
