  G1 - 2x Poplar, 1x Sycamore (located on river bank) - fell to as near ground level as possible. This is due to all 3 trees to be located on a river bank with a slight lean towards neighbouring properties. G2 - 15-20x Willows (located on river bank) - Pollard all trees to approximately 2-2.5m from ground level. This is due to them no encroaching on neighbouring properties.

  I wish to apply to fell and dismantle the mature Cedar of Lebanon tree, known as tree icon 014J in the grounds of St Mary's Church yard, Shaw. The tree has had two significant and large limb rip outs over the last threee months from probalby included bark and acute branch collars, the remaining tree has several more significant limbs with similar branch collars and the concern is that additional limbs and branches are likely to fall over time. A well used footpath runs past the tree and this is used daily by children and adults. The tree now has two large decay points where the limbs ripped out from so these will be sites of pathogen ingress over time. The tree is around 15m in height and 10-12m in width, the hope is that the church plants a replacement tree elsewhere in the churchyard.
