Planning application
11 Primrose Close North Hykeham Lincoln Lincolnshire LN6 9UN
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 Poplar Remove limb overhanging rear garden of Primrose close to the last bundle of growth leaving approx. 6ft long section from the main stem. According to the maps provided by the local planning authority the tree falls outside the restricted area so any work to this tree shouldn't need permission but I have been advised to make a application by the Tree officer. Applicant is extremely worried about the over extended limb which stretches out as far as the neighbouring property. Extremely over extended and with this dry weather we've been having I have witnessed a number of large limbs becoming brittle and failing due to the weight and winds we've been having. A number of large cavities below the union on the main stem with possible signs of decay, one is also bleeding causing black staining. Poplar can severely damage footings to properties and is such a large tree for such a built up area. Removing this limb would stunt growth and would rebalance the tree. One branch has already failed and is currently hanging dangerously low over the applicants garden where her children play. A major limb has been removed from the back of the tree causing it to be more unbalanced than it was before and has set president for this type of remedial work to be carried out.

T1 - Lime - Approx. 16m in height with. spread of approx. 7m There was an application made in June 2026 which was accepted by the council to reduce this tree all round by 1.5m - 26/0668/TPO When we came to complete the work in August, we noticed a significant decline in the trees health. The main canopy appears to be dying back with very sparse foliage on the upper and outer branches. Please see attached photo which was taken on 11th of August. The owner of the tree would like to request a reduction of up to 6m - as depicted in the photograph with red lines, it is hoped that with this level of reduction it will help the tree to regenerate as there did appear to be some foliage on the lower limbs and close to the main stem.
