Planning applications in Torbay, April 2021

Chilcote House 14 Manor Road Torquay TQ1 3JX

Failed retaining wall adjacent public highway. Part retrospective application - for root pruning. Part application for crown reduction. Recommendations: Do not cut any more of tree or roots over 2.5cm in diameter. Prune off small fibrous roots with sharp clean tool (such as secateurs) to minimise the size of the wound and reduce the possibility of decay pathogens gaining access to the roots. Cover exposed roots (including fine fibrous feeding roots) with hessian sack and wet to prevent further desiccation. Rebuild wall around tree shape and root form. Protect the roots from leachate with a polythene root barrier from base of foundation to level of tree mass. Undertake a crown reduction in height by 3m by drop crotching, reducing the lateral branches by 2m to leave a crown of a good form.
