Proposal
AMENDED SPECIFICATION SEE CONDITION 2 T1 - English Oak situated in the front garden of the property adjacent to the shared driveway. We are looking to carry out a rection of up to 2m. This is due to our findings in our full tree inspection. We believe a reduction of up to 10m would be sufficient to make the tree safe. Although this is quite a drastic reduction, we are aiming to ensure the trees longevity is preserved. Please see documents previously attached for further information and findings.

What a grant of permission means
The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
About trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

Both have continued to show lower vitality and are bearing less and less leaves. T1 Monkey Puzzle - To fell Monkey puzzle to near ground level removing all arisings. This tree is very close to the house making it unsuitable for long term retention and is not in keeping with the surrounding native trees and woodland. T2 Oak - Large diameter Oak on rear boundary, reduce large diameter deadwood by up to 4m in length to stabilise and reduce the chance of failure. (Exempt works). H1 - Remove all front boundary Conifer hedging grinding all stumps and visible roots in the lawn to leave a border ready for replanting.

MODIFIED SEPECIFICATION SEE CONDITION 2 T1 - Beech - All round crown reduction by 2 meters. T2 - Sycamore - Re-pollard to previous points (approx. 2m reduction). T3 - Beech -All round crown reduction by 2 meters. This work represents the continuation of an established pollarding cycle to manage the tree's canopy weight. The reductions are necessary to maintain statutory clearance over the adjacent public highway and footway. Managing the crown via this routine cycle mitigates excessive seasonal shading.

T1: Beech (rear garden, left tree) - Reduce overall canopy by 2m to appropriate growth points, following BS3998 standards. The aim of the reduction is to minimise the chance of failure and to keep the tree maintained at a reasonable size before a more drastic reduction may be needed in the future. There is a poor V-shaped union between two co-dominant stems, which the reduction will reduce tip weight and minimise sail. The reduction will also aim to maintain a natural looking tree, pruning to appropriate growth points. T2: Lime (rear garden, right tree) - Reduce height of canopy by 3m and laterals reduce by 2m to appropriate growth points, following BS3998 standards. Epicormic growth to be removed from the main stem. The aim of the reduction is to keep the tree managed and to reduce the risk of failure. The tree has been lifted to 60% of its height, canopy starting at 11m. The reduction will lessen the sail, whilst keeping the tree maintained at reasonable points before a more drastic reduction is required in the future. The reduction will also aim to create a more visually appealing shape, whilst maintaining a natural looking tree. All major deadwood of 25mm in diameter or larger to be removed from both trees.
