Works: Trees

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

Proposal

The dead and potentially dangerous tree to be removed is located adjacent to footpath FP1304124 approximately 25 meters above the bottom corner of the garden of Standroyd, Skipton old road. The Hawthorn bushes are adjacent to footpath FP 1304124 approximately 50 meters further up the footpath beside an open gateway between the middle fields on the Triangle. A number of other trees and shrubs are significantly overgrowing into the Lidgett Triangle around the perimeter, particularly a number of houses on Keighley road, Bent lane and Skipton old road. The works is intended to provide essential maintenance for the environmental health of the fields and improve the overall appearance.

    Removal of sycamore tree. Tree is 3.3 metres away from the property and poses a risk of subsidence to the rear of the property. Sycamores have expansive, aggressive, and relatively shallow root networks and the soil is predominantly clay on the property. Large overhang of branches over the roof of the rear of the property pose a risk to damage if one breaks and falls. Also causing moss to form on the roof tiles, which has to be removed annually. Planting several upright hawthorns Crataegus monogyna Stricta along the boundary of the property. Maintenance of cherry tree to the front of the property, pruning and raising the crown slightly to preserve and maintain the tree. Both trees are marked on the property map attached to this application along with photographs.
