We respectfully request permission to pollard two False Acacia Trees, reducing their crowns by approximately 50%. The proposed works are necessary due to the trees' close proximity to the adjacent building and roadway. The property owner has concerns regarding the potential risk posed by these trees, particularly following the failure of a third False acacia tree on the property in January. Fortunately, when that tree failed, it narrowly missed the building and no injuries or significant damage occurred. The two trees proposed for works are highlighted in red on the attached site map for ease of identification and photographic evidence for the recent tree that failed.

Dove House 14 Valley Road Weston By Welland LE16 8HZ
T1- silver birch has outgrown its location and is causing nuisance through shading, leaf litter and potential impacts on a neighbouring garden wall. It is therefore proposed to reduce the tree to a 3m monolith, retaining the lower stem as a deadwood habitat feature T2- holm oak has become too large for its setting, creating excessive shade and encroaching into the crown of the adjacent mature ash tree. It is proposed to reduce and shape the tree to 4m in height and maintain it at this size through regular pruning
