Planning application
13 Church Close Whittlesford Cambridgeshire CB22 4NY
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 - Beech tree showing severe signs of decline both in the canopy and around the lower trunk. Remove all the deadwood and reduce the rest of the tree by 2.5-3.5 meters. The reason for this is to reshape the tree as it is currently out of shape and once the deadwood is removed there will be large gaps within the canopy.
