Planning application
Oak Lodge 1 Franklands Gardens Burgess Hill West Sussex RH15 0UJ
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 Sycamore: Crown lift removing lower branches to approximately 6m (the bottom of the crown). Thin crown by 15% removing damaged, crossing and dead branches. Cut back branches growing towards Oak lodge by 2m cutting to suitable growth points and keeping wound size to a minimum as the tree is excessively shading the garden.
