87% historically approved · decision due ~23 Nov
T1 lime and T2 lime, 12 meters in height, re- pollard to previous points. The trees are recommended for re-pollarding to manage the dense regrowth from previous pollarding. As the new branches compete for space at the pollard heads, some can become weakly attached and fail, creating a risk of falling branches. Re-pollarding will help to manage this regrowth and maintain a stable, controlled structure.
