74 London Road Stapleford Cambridgeshire CB22 5DR

Granted South Cambridgeshire 23/0141/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 -Sycamore - Remove lesser stem leaning towards house to provide a 3m clearance between the house and the tree. T2 - Mature Sycamore - Sympathetic Crown reduction to growth points of 1.5m - to reduce risk of failure at the fungal decay points and also reduce shade. T3 - Mature Horse Chestnut - Crown reduction of 1.5m to growth points to alleviate sail and weight. Removal of deadwood. T4 - Sycamore - Fell tree has a progressive lean towards the neighbors house. On closer inspection the left hand bifurcation exhibits a lot of bark loss on the tension side of the lean. This is evident throughout the upper crown. The other concern is the proximity of the root plate to the neighbors foundations. T5 - Sycamore - Crown reduction of 2m to growth points to allevaite weight and sail and reduce risk to public and traffic . This tree has a heavy lean over the road and has very poor form due to previous phototropism. It has recently shed several large branches over the road, one narrowly missing a member of the public apparently. T6 - Sycamore - Crown thin 15% to alleviate sail and improve light below also removal of deadwood. T7 - Sycamore - Crown thin 15% to alleviate sail and improve light below, also remove deadwood.
