21/00730/TCA Granted
5 Mile End Road Norwich NR4 7QY
Laurus Nobilis (T3) - fell because of shading to garden preventing planting of beds Prunus Cerasifera (T4) - fell because of shading to the garden preventing planting of beds Cotoneaster (T6) - fell because of shading to garden preventing planting of beds. The three trees on the east side of the garden which we are proposing to remove cast a lot of shade and interfere with the use of the garden and the ability to grow plants. There is a large Cotoneaster (T7) and a pear tree (T8) (please note that there is no T5 due to an error when preparing the plan) on the other side of the garden which are being retained. There are also a number of trees in neighbouring gardens. It is intended that the work will be carried out by professionals and will not be commenced until after the nesting season.
