Planning application
148 Widney Lane Solihull B91 3LH
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Reshape sycamore tree (Tree 1) by approximately 1-2 metres to rebalance overall canopy due to heavy weight bias on one side. Reduce 2 oak trees (Tree 2 and Tree 3) by approximately 2-3 metres and reshape, also lift lower limbs to a height of approximately 5 metres to reduce the end weight of over-extended limbs to eliminate failure, especially over children's play area where safety is a cause for concern. Reducing the overall size of the trees will also allow more light to access the gardens and reduce shading.
