Planning application
All Hallows Church Of England Broadwoodkelly EX19 8ED
Works: Trees Small domestic
Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1: Beech - Crown lift to 4.5m above ground level and lateral reduction to primary limbs over gravestones that are regularly visited, by a maximum of 2.5m of branch length by the removal of branches directly overhanging and touching said gravestones. There has been further branch drop this week that landed on top of a row of gravestones that are actively visited. There is one overhanging bow that has already split and we believe poses risk to life and limb should it shed whilst people are present, let alone damage the gravestones. This work was previously reported by a qualified tree surgeon.
