  • 6/2026/1482/TC Awaiting decision

    29 Sheepcote Welwyn Garden City AL7 4QA

    Remove 40ft ash tree - The ash tree is showing signs of basal decay and structural defects from previous poor pruning, raising concerns over its long-term stability. Its raised roots are also damaging and lifting garden pathways, creating an ongoing maintenance and trip hazard. Continued pruning would require significant ongoing expenditure, therefore removal is considered appropriate on arboricultural, safety and practical grounds
