    Oak tree to the rear of 8 Clay Close. We wish to remove branches overhanging our property boundary by approx 8m. The tree is not maintained by the land owner and severely encroaches onto our property, shutting out daylight. In autumn, our garden is covered with large amounts of leaf detritus, making our patio slippery and dangerous underfoot. Previous application was approved under 19/01512/TPW

    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.
