Works are proposed to maintain the tree at a size appropriate to its garden setting.

Works are proposed as part of the ongoing management of T4-T6 to reduce their overall size and alleviate excessive shading. The applicant has raised concerns regarding cracking to the side of the property in proximity to T4 and T5. No assessment of causation is being submitted as part of this application. The proposed works are primarily intended to manage the size of the trees and reduce excessive shading.
