T1 on sketch plan - The tree is in the front garden of Bel-Air close to the boundary with Edgehill. On 26 August 2021 consemt was given by the local authority under reference LCS/21/1681/TPO to reduce the crown in height by 2 metres. This work was never done but consent is now requested due to considerable further growth of the tree. Furthermore the tree is becoming over extended and consent is requested to reduce the lateral spread by 1.5 metres to relieve the overall weight and stop the branches touching both the houses Bel-Air and Edgehill.
