Planning applications in Torbay, March 2026

10 Stoke Gabriel Road Brixham TQ5 0NQ

Tree 1 - conifer- to be removed as outgrown its position & causing an obstruction. Tree 2 - Crown reduction to approx 12 ft tall & 6 ft wide. Tree 3 - Crown reduction to approx 20ft tall x 10ft wide. There are currently brambles & ivy growing within which makes it look much denser & will be removed. Tree 4 - conifer - It will only be dead branches which will be removed which I realise permission is not required for. So no new picture. Tree 5 - the Pittosporum will require crown reduction. Unfortunately due to its current height & position it is difficult to estimate what the reduction will be to but is still likely approx 20 ft tall & 10ft wide. As can be seen there is a variegated ivy growing up it which will be be removed.

The Shaws Steep Hill Torquay TQ1 4TS

T1 Scots Pine - This tree lost a couple of branches during the recent storm. In order to protect the tree we would like to carry out some minor crown thinning by about 20% to reduce wind sail area. T2 Spruce - This tree is approximately 60ft in height and is located quite close to the rear of the property. A fir tree of similar height came down during the recent storms and we are concerned that this tree may also have fallen. It was noted to be swaying much more than normal and when stood on the ground beneath it a small amount of movement could be felt. We would therefore like to reduce the height by approximately 15-20ft.

Job Spec: T1 Beech (Neighbours tree but part of the group): - Crown reduction on the NE (facing house) aspect of canopy focusing on long over extended lateral, shortening by up to 2m in places keeping the natural form of the canopy. - Removal of 3 lower branches back to main stem no bigger than 100mm in diameter. Pre-pruning dimensions - W 12m H 18M - Post pruning W 10m - H18m T2 Beech: - Crown reduction on the NE (facing house) aspect of canopy focusing on long over extended lateral, shortening by up to 2m in places keeping the natural form of the canopy. - Removal of 3 lower branches back to main stem no bigger than 80mm in diameter. Pre-pruning dimensions W 12m H 18m Post Pruning - W 10m H 18m T3 Beech: - Crown reduction on the NE (facing house) aspect of canopy focusing on long over extended lateral, shortening by up to 2m in places keeping the natural form of the canopy. - Removal of 3 lower branches back to main stem no bigger than 100mm in diameter. Pre pruning dimensions W 12m H 18m Post-pruning - W 10m H 18m To achieve a clearance of 4m from garden level. Reasons: To shorten over extended branches towards dwelling, minimal small branch removal from the lower canopy to get a bit more natural light within the property without disrupting the natural shape of the canopy.
