Cherry: located in the north-western corner of the plot of land surrounding Speen Village Hall. The location of the tree trunk is marked on the attached sketch/site plan. Reduce the canopy in order both: (i) to improve the shape and health of the tree; and (ii) to reduce the risk of its branches damaging the roofs of the Village Hall and Alma House house. The photograph attached to this application was taken by Michael Cairns from just inside the pedestrian gate in the north-eastern corner of the plot (where it abuts Speen Lane) looking to rear/north-western corner of the plot where the cherry tree is situated. Height is currently c. 9 metres. The proposed reduction would reduce the height to c. 6 metres The width of the tree would be reduced by c. 2.5 metres as shown in submitted photo.
