  The trees are not protected by a Tree Preservation Order and we have had permission to remove or reduce in height approximately 4 to 5 years ago, I believe these permissions have now lapsed. We would want all trees to be removed to ground level. I am very happy to replace with several indigenous silver birch as I indicated in my earlier application.
