Newlyn Penny Bridge ULVERSTON LA12 7RQ
South Lakeland DC TPO No 65 1988 “Maple - Fell to ground level and remove all arisings from site, tree has a fungus at just below the pollard point (possibly Oxyporus populinus ) limited evidence of the effect it has on trees but believed to be parasitic, given the location of the tree, property and utilities etc we believe this is the safest option. Including application for road space permits and traffic control.” The above information has been provided by South Lakes Tree Surgeons & Landscapes Ltd as set out in the documents sent via email. The tree subject to this application is the only remaining tree on the land of Newlyn subject to a TPO. It is not proposed to plant a replacement tree for the tree that this application relates due to its close proximity to my property Newlyn, the neighbouring property, Fairholme and utilities. If it is felt that a replacement tree is required, it is proposed to plant a Copper Beech to replace this tree. It is also understood that a tree was required to be planted following the felling of a previous tree subject to a TPO. A replacement tree had been planted however it appears to have failed. It is therefore proposed to plant a further tree, a Rowan, to replace that tree.
