    The tree is a Copper Beech listed as TPO 129 and on your map as T16 and these are shown on the sketch plan attached. The proposed work is the removal of a lower branch which overhangs both the adjacent footpath and roadway to avoid any potential risks to pedestrians. This work was recommended by the tree surgeon who visited the site.
