3 Private Road Nottingham Nottingham City NG5 4DD

Awaiting decision Nottingham 23/00439/PWC Works to trees in Conservation Areas

Works: Trees

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

The bay tree is located in a brick raised bed on the left-hand side of the central courtyard at Pelham Court (located between Houses 3 & 5 Private Road). This tree needs to be removed to enable Pelham Court Management Company Limited to install a replacement metal fire staircase for Flat 4 which provides suitable protection during any fire evacuation. To enable the replacement metal staircase to meet current building and fire regulations, the existing raised bed will need to be removed as it sits within the location of the new staircase. There is only a single, non-original bay tree located within this bed (probably planted when Pelham Court was converted into apartments in the late 1980s). To enable the new staircase to be installed in accordance with the design agreed with Building Control by our structural engineers at Key Design, this bay tree will need to be removed. No other impact on any other trees at Pelham Court will occur as part of this work.

    The tree is at the front of the property on the edge of Private Road. There is a telegraph pole near the tree which carries phone cable. Assessed by tree surgeon who suggests pollarding to keep in line with other trees the same age that are adjacent to our property. Main concerns are that a number of branches have fallen into the garden and road in high winds.

    T1 - Holly - Remove 2 x limbs leaning towards the house, reduce the rest to the height of the gutter and trim up over the footpath. T2 - Apple - Remove lower limb and overhanging branches. T3 - Apple - Side back away from neighbours property. Reason for works: T2 and T3 are 2 x Apple trees situated on the driveway that are making a mess of cars and leaning heavily towards neighbouring property. T1 is a Holly that is leaning towards the house and is uneven since removing the Cypress so the work will retain the aesthetic of the natural shape.
