Planning application

67 WORDSWORTH ROAD, RUGBY, CV22 6HZ

Granted Rugby R23/0213 Works to trees

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

Beech tree No 45 G5 After speaking to an arborist, they have suggested that the tree needs a crown lift and crown reduction to reduce the spread over the garden by around 1.5 metres. The reason for this is that the tree is covering a fifth of our garden, it is blocking out light so nothing is growing and large dead branches have fallen in our garden and this is dangerous.

    T26 Wellingtonia (Sequoiadendron giganteum) Canopy touching garage of adjacent building. Remove dead wood and lower limbs to give 2m clearance. T31 Lawson Cypress (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana) This has partly collapsed in to another tree and close to properties. Tree will be removed. T56 English Elm (Ulmus procera) Dead tree that will need to be removed due to location near to the public path T57 English Elm (Ulmus procera) Dead tree that will need to be removed due to location near to the public path. T58 Lawson Cypress (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana) Is covering the street light and needs to pruned around to give light to the dark pavement. Concern over safety reasons when walking in the dark. T59 Elder (Sambucus nigra) Dead tree that will need to be removed due to location near to the public path. Grid Ref: SP 49235 72892. A mature Common Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) displaying signs of ash dieback and obstructing the street light located on the boundary next to the path and substation was also identified when surveyed by Warwickshire wildlife Trust 30/08/2022. Presumably this was not picked up by the arboricultural report due to the time of year the survey was carried out. Remedial work: Remove deadwood or pollard due to proximity to path and substation.
