Planning application

Hurstleigh Shire Lane Chorleywood Hertfordshire

Granted Three Rivers 24/1270/TPO Works to trees covered by a Tree Pres O

Works: Trees Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

T1 - Hornbeam - Had a 5 day notice works completed due to stem structural failure at ground level, that caused a large lateral to sit on shed roof. This work reduced the pressure on the main stem - now to enable the main stem and a low canopy for screening and biodiversity to be retained safely, the following works will be carried out (as per photo) Reduce remaining lateral side limb by 1 metre Reduce second highest lateral limb that goes over neighbours garden to significant growth point at 2 metres from crown break Reduce main leader to new growth points at circa 4 metres This should mean the tree can be retained for the significant future
