Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1- Betula utilis var Jacquemontii- Himilayan Birch- maintain size and shape but thin to reduce density of branches up to a third- target weeping branches that cannot support load and ruining shape of tree- allow more light into garden. T2-Corylus avellana- Hazel- multistem/coppice - Remove/ fell - creating excessive shading to new bifold doors and blocking side access. Have tried coppicing in the past but is very vigorous in regrowth and the wrong tree for the location. replace with small multistem flowering tree from native family in more suitable location. see document 4. proposed garden design. T3- Malus -Apple tree- Remove/ fell- Young tree already creating access issues for side access. as part of the garden design we want to lower the patio here. currently neighbours property is retaining soil and we want to lower this to be 200mm below ground floor height. must remove the tree to do this. T4-7 Malus and Pyrus mix- Group of apple and pair espaliers grown along boundary that have grown out into trees- Remove/ fell- the trees are causing excessive shading and are unpractical to manage requiring specialist pruning at least twice a year. The fence behind is falling apart and the removal of these trees will allow access to replace. Windfall fruit is creating an issue with rats. Replace with beech hedge that is easy to maintain with hedge cutter.
