    The Copper beech tree under TPO is very large and results in limited light being able to reach our upstairs bedroom. The work requested is a crown reduction of 1.5m from height and width to provide more light to the property and sufficient clearance from the upstairs window. Please note: a recent application was made and approved for a crown lift in error (PP-11325970). No work has been undertaken on the tree under that permission. We have since consulted with a tree surgeon to ensure the description of the work required is appropriate as requested above.

    Copper Beech on right hand side of the property We are requesting permission to perform a crown lift of up to 3m to the tree. The tree is large and is limiting light into our upstairs bedroom and to our side garden. We have requested permission for the above in January 2020 which was granted but we took a very conservative approach at that time and lifted by only 1m. Now a couple of years on we would like to extend the lift to the original proposed level for the reasons set out above.
