  2 x Lime trees In early 2007 you gave us permission to reduce the height of the two lime trees near the gate on the east side of the churchyard and advised that we should consult you again in due course (3 years)? Now ten years on the occupant of the nerby house in the Glebe is concerned that the trees, now back to at least their original height, pose a threat in high winds. Our new application seeks your agreement to have another go at them. We roughly estimate that the trees are now at least 60' high with the original pollarding at 20' and the 2007 one at 50', as shown in the sketch. We would welcome your advice on how we can best deal with these trees and your permission to proceed with the action you recommend. Remarks:
