Planning application

Tudor Cottage High Street Chieveley Newbury RG20 8UX

Granted West Berkshire 26/00488/TPC Tree Works in Conservation Area

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

There are three lime trees on my driveway. I would like to re-pollard the tree nearest the house (marked as 'Lime Tree 3' on the sketch plan) back to previous pollard points. Our cars are parked near this tree. The branches now overhang the cars and cover them in sap in the summer which attracts large numbers of wasps onto the cars (we've counted over 50 on many occasions). Repollarding will remove the likelihood of getting stung by wasps as we get in and out of the cars.

    Please see accompanying recommended works from Jenks tree surgeons. Relates to three purple plum trees. We intend to reduce each by 1-1.5m which will reduce remaining height to approximately 2.5-3m in order to bring the trees back into scale with their surroundings.

    T1 - Lime: Inside Car Park Area. Re-pollard to old points. The proposed works would not reduce the amenity value of the tree and will allow sustainable tree management in the long term. The works are part of a regular maintenance program to retain the tree at a suitable size of its location.
