    T1 - Ash T1 - Ash - this tree is in my opinion of low amenity value, it is causing potential health risks, as pigeons are roosting in it and defecating over the cars which are parked beneath. We would therefore like to apply to remove the Ash tree. Remarks:

    T1 - Lime tree T1 - Lime tree located in the eastern corner of the front garden. Reduce crown height by approx 2.5 metres, creating new pollard points. The tree is multi-stemmed, otherwise showing good health. Some branches are becoming over lateral, particularly towards the traffic lights on the main carriageway and footpath. There are also some branches touching the old church building next door. My client has some concerns over this and also leaf fall is a potential problem due to leaves becoming wet when fallen, causing a slippery surface. The tree has a good amenity value, particularly due to neighbouring properties having trees felled, and also benefits by way of absorbing carbon dioxide levels. I have recommended reducing the crown height by approx 2.5m and bringing the crown width in, creating new pollard points, leading to managing the tree roughly every five years. The tree is located in the Nettlebed Conservation Area. Remarks:
