Planning application

62 Brookfield Road Grimsby North East Lincolnshire DN33 3JL

Granted North East Lincolnshire DM/1121/23/TPO Works to a tree with a TPO

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

Ash tree identified as T1 and yellow star on attached sketch plan. The Ash tree has a notable cavity which extends downwards from a previously removed branch on the South side (See Pic 2). There is a cavity (See Pic 3) at approximately 1m above ground level. The depth of this extends to approximately 50% of the stem diameter. Significant heartwood decay is also visible. The vast majority of the crown of the tree is located within the top 25% of the stem which in such an exposed location creates a significant sail effect. The immediately adjacent Ash tree has also recently failed having similar decay. This has also left this individual tree more exposed to the wind. Due to the now increased risk of this tree also failing and causing damage to outbuildings and/or fences the client wishes to remove the tree.

    Amended work specification: After consultation with both the tree officer and the ecology officer my client would like to apply for permission to pollard Ash T1 (as per previous supplied sketch plan) to preserve any potential bat habitat whilst also mitigating the risk of structural failure. The four branches marked by red lines as indicative cut points (Figure 1) will be reduced to approx. 15cm to 30cm stubs for regenerative growth. To reduce structural loading of the main stem it will be reduced to the inner blue line (Figure 1). To protect any potential roosts (Non confirmed at present) the stem will first be reduced to the outer blue line followed by prudent cutting to the inner blue line past a potential access point between the two. See attached photo.

    DM/0077/24/TPO Submitted 19 Jan 2024 50 yards away

    Ash tree identified as T1 in the attached Sketch. The tree has been inspected and was found to have a significant cavity located 50cm above ground level on the Southern side of the stem. The cavity was measured to be approximately 50cm in length and 10cm in width at the opening widening internally. The depth of which was measured to be approximately 50cm. This is approximately 64% of the trees total DBH (Measured at 1.5m) of approximately 78cm. Pictures Ash1 and Ash2 attached for reference of cavity depth. The client is concerned about structural failure of the tree as seen in other specimens with similar defects in the local area. With the lean of the tree biased towards the neighbours fence and summerhouse (Reference picture Ash1) they are also concerned of their liability should a failure occur. For the above reasons the client wishes to remove the tree and re-plant with a suitable species as recommended by the tree officer.
