13 Greenway Road Brixham TQ5 0LR
T1. Copper Beech tree (Fagus Sylvatica f. Purpurea) Mature, approximate height of 20 meters. Applying for permission to crown lift the lower branches one of which is a medium branches which wouldn't change the shape of the tree and a reduction of the crown by 2-3 meters. The reasons behind this application are: To give more light to surrounding shrubs and small trees. Reduce the extended branches lessoning the weight. Retain the tree at a size that's in keeping with its surroundings with now being a good time for a reduction due to a good amount of reduction points on small branches. Give more light to the neighbouring house which is overshadowed by both the Beech tree and the Lime tree. There is a new house being built near the tree at the bottom of the garden with a Sedum roof which would benefit from having more light but also less leaves falling onto the roof in the autumn.
