Planning application

13A Cavendish Crescent South Nottingham Nottingham City NG7 1ED

Granted Nottingham 26/01427/PWC

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

Removal of four Ilex aquifolium (Common Holly), stump grinding, and replacement with a native pleached Carpinus betulus (Hornbeam) hedge. The proposal will improve the appearance, functionality and long-term landscape contribution of the frontage while preserving and enhancing the character of the Conservation Area. The four existing holly trees are small specimens of limited arboricultural and amenity value. They display poor form, including irregular crowns, uneven growth and sparse foliage, resulting in a weak and unmanaged appearance. As such, they make only a minor contribution to the streetscape and do not form part of a significant landscape feature, historic planting scheme or important tree group. The proposal represents a clear enhancement rather than a loss of tree cover. The hollies will be replaced with a formally managed pleached hornbeam hedge. Hornbeam is a native species widely used in historic landscapes and Conservation Areas due to its longevity, strong visual structure and excellent tolerance of pruning. The replacement planting will provide a more cohesive and sustainable landscape feature, delivering greater visual amenity, improved frontage screening and a stronger contribution to the character and appearance of the Conservation Area.

    A cherry tree located in the south-east corner of the garden of 21A CCS, owned by us, has for many years suffered ivy strangulation along the full length of its trunk and also along its branches. We have just had the ivy fully removed and now wish to apply for a crown-fin/crossed branches and a 10% reduction due to the branches sweeping across the house's bay window and upper elevations thereby potentially causing damage and water ingress to the property once we enter autumn/winter. Uploaded with this application are before and after ivy strangulation photographs as well as a hand drawn sketch plan identifying the cherry tree and its location
