Little Egret Thurlestone TQ7 3NX

Granted West Devon 2076/26/TPO Works to a TPO Tree

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

T078, T079, T080 - Ash/Fraxinus Excelsior - Proposed works are for removal of dead branches only (deadwooding) to all three trees; no felling is proposed at this stage. Reasons for the work: the trees show significant dead branching. It is proposed that the dead wood is removed and the trees are monitored for a period of 1-2 years to assess whether they recover. Felling will only be reconsidered if the trees fail to recover in that time.
