19 Ryecroft Lane Fowlmere Cambridgeshire SG8 7TT

Granted South Cambridgeshire 22/1158/TTPO Works to TPO trees

Works: Trees Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

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

Proposal

T1 - This tree is an asset to the local community and the surrounding area. It recently shed a large branch. This branch landed across the shared driveway and Infront of No.21s front door. Luckily both cars were out and no one was hurt. The tree itself is over extended and has a very large sail. From the ground it is evident that there are pockets of rot in the upper crown. The tree also has branches extending over both houses and is actually touching the roof of number 19. Request a 3.5m reduction in height and a 1.5m reduction of the sides, to growth points where possible. Removal of deadwood and any hazard beams. The aim of the works will be to reduce the risk of failure and reduce sail.

    24/0959/TTPO Submitted 2 Sep 2024 172m away

    x3 ash trees - which are approximately 8-10 metres tall and are approximately 6 metres from the wall of my house. I am proposing to reduce the height of the trees to below the gutter level of my house which is approximately 5 meters. Reasons: Having renewed my house insurance recently, some policies had penalties or higher premiums due to the height of the trees within close proximity to the house. I have lived in the house since 1989 and over time the trees have grown significantly. The height of the trees in such close proximity restrict the light to my house which means on the ground floor kitchen I often have to still use a light even in summer. Reducing the height of the trees will permit more light into my house. The garden it self has over time become more and more overshadowed by the trees. They impose shade for all but a few hours of the day. Also pollarding the trees will continue to keep them in good health.
