Proposal
Oak - (T1) - Tree is approximately 19m in height and we are applying to reduce height of the tree to approximately 16m to suitable pruning points. One lateral limb over garage roof to be reduced more significantly to help reduce future failure by approximately 2.5m. There are a few leaders in the crown that will also require pruning in order to maintain balance to the tree, these will be reduce to suitable points by around 1.5-2m. Tree has a weakened centre stem which failed in a recent storm revealing a weak union at around 9m, we aim to reduce the risk of future failure by balancing the crown and it's remaining lengthy leaders

1 Green Acres Waltham Grimsby North East Lincolnshire DN37 0QG
am writing regarding a large spruce at 1 Green Acres, Waltham, DN37 0QG. The tree is very large and mature and is situated close to the property. Its dense canopy causes substantial shading and a significant loss of natural daylight to the house and garden. I would be grateful if you could confirm whether this spruce is covered by a Tree Preservation Order and, if so, provide the TPO reference and plan identifying the tree. I would also like to request that a Tree Officer inspects the tree and considers whether removal would be appropriate given its current size, proximity to the property and the significant shading it causes. I note that the Council has previously permitted the removal and reduction of TPO-protected trees at 4 and 5 Green Acres where shading and proximity to properties were relevant considerations, including application DM/0101/20/TPO at 4 Green Acres. If removal were considered appropriate, I would be happy to discuss suitable replacement planting in a more appropriate location.
