T1 - Mature apple (malus domestic) - Crown reduce all over by 2 meters.

11 Savile Way Fowlmere Cambridgeshire SG8 7TU

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.

Single storey side/rear extension and garage conversion.

Parking Area Dove House Close Fowlmere Cambridgeshire

3 Elm trees on the NNE side of the path, and 2 Elm trees on the SSW side of the Path. As these is adjacent to a highway, and a footpath and near houses, these trees need to be felled for safety reasons. As this is a great habitat some may be felled to monolith 1m height. There are several Elm Trees in this area alongside the Highway (Ryecroft Lane) which have succumbed to Dutch Elm disease, and are dead or dying. There is Dutch Elm disease in this area, so if new trees are to be planted they need to be disease resistant.

The Green High Street Fowlmere Cambridgeshire SG8 7SS

1no. tree should be felled due to its condition (Field Maple 144 on sketch plan). This seems to be suffering from excessive shading from larger surrounding trees, which is a natural process of succession. This tree is situated close to a bench and a path, plus near an area of grass that children play on. Therefore needs to be felled as a safety issue.
