Planning application

Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
I would like to reduce the size of the conifer tree I planted 10 years ago to hide the telephone pole in my garden. The height and size needs reducing back. I would hope to half it's current size or back to the top of the telephone pole. I also have 4 Lorrell bushes that also just need a trim. I want to keep the trees in good health and make them look nice so I will use the recommendation of the tree surgeon to best suggest how far they get cut back and still look good.

Tree Code: Sgl/106736 Species: Beech (Fagus sylvatica) TPO: TPO269 (T10) Works Sectionally fell and remove the Beech tree to ground level. Remove all timber, branches and arising debris from site. Grind out or otherwise remove the stump where practicable, or leave at ground level as directed by the client. Reason for Works The tree is exhibiting significant structural defects and decay, including: Evidence of substantial basal decay associated with fungal activity (Pholiota spp.). Hollow sounding stem indicating internal decay. Two very large historic tear-out wounds, including one approximately 5 metres above ground level. Major limb loss and loss of large branches. Abnormal buttressing and trunk form. Stem decay below the crown break. These defects indicate a significant decline in structural integrity and an increased risk of partial or whole-tree failure. Summary 1 × Beech (Fagus sylvatica) Sectional dismantling and removal of the entire tree due to advanced structural defects and decay.
