Planning application
3 Bushwood Drive Dorridge Solihull B93 8JL
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Cut back to previous pruning points on oak tree T1 in front over the driveway in front garden to lessen overhanging growth above the garage and neighbour, remove weaker shoots and rebalance the crown. Conduct a 15-20% crown thin (removing approximately 1/6 - 1/5 of smaller branches) to reduce density and allow light penetration. Crown clean: Remove all dead, dying, and dangerous timber.
