    Oakleigh Grove Lane Wolverhampton West Midlands WV6 8NH

    Description of Trees and Proposed Works - note there is no TPO on the trees in question. T1 (Sycamore), T2 (Elder), and T3 (Elder): This application proposes the felling to ground level of a tight cluster of three self-seeded trees (T1, T2, and T3) situated in the narrow gap between the property boundary and the existing garage. T3 is in direct physical contact with the garage brickwork and is currently suppressing the eaves and guttering. T1 and T2 are multi-stemmed specimens located within the immediate root protection area of the structure. The removal is required to facilitate a garage conversion; the current proximity of these trees makes the necessary foundation reinforcement and structural upgrades impossible without compromising both the stability of the trees and the long-term integrity of the building. These trees are of low amenity value and their removal will not negatively impact the character of the Tettenhall Wood Conservation Area. Work: Fell to ground level and grind stump.

    02/2/26 T221 (Elm) T1 Dune Willow (I believe) Wished to be felled to ground level. Reason: The tree forms part of a group on the boundary of the church grounds and has naturally fort for light and made it lean heavily towards the road covering both lanes, and creating a very low canopy for passing vehicle?s, long term retention isn't plausible. Thank you.

    T5201 - Oak - Reduce/pollard the crown to approx 6m, retaining the lower stem as standing deadwood habitat as appropriate - Decay at base on SE side. Sounding hammer indicated significant decay. Ganoderma bracket present, tree previously pollarded T5204 - Silver Birch - Fell tree - Tree leaning over residential garden T5205 - Oak - Reduce/pollard crown to approx 8m to reduce end-weight and loading towards the adjacent residential gardens - Cavity at 6m on west side, canopy leaning over gardens T5206 - Oak - Reduce/pollard crown to approx 8m - Crown extends over adjacent residential gardens following the failure/removal of an adjacent tree Remove several Holly trees overhanging neighbouring gardens down as close to ground level as practicably possible. H1/H2/H3 The holly trees require removal to facilitate safe and efficient implementation of the approved oak tree works and future boundary maintenance. Owing to their boundary location, retention would create ongoing management and access constraints for adjoining landowners. Their contribution to the character and appearance of the conservation area is limited, and their removal is not considered detrimental to local amenity.

    Cadet Centre Halecroft Avenue Wolverhampton West Midlands WV11 1TS

    06/00074/TPO, Halecroft Avenue, Wednesfield, Tree Preservation Order 1997 [02/2/445] (T1) Specification of Proposed Works Prune the protected tree to remove and/or selectively reduce only those branches that are currently overhanging and contacting, or are likely to come into contact with, the roof and guttering of the building. In addition, selectively prune branches around the overhead telephone/broadband cable supplying the cadet centre, removing only those branches that are currently contacting the cable or are sufficiently close that they are likely to interfere with, place pressure on, or damage the cable. The pruning is to be carried out sympathetically and to the minimum extent necessary to provide adequate clearance from the roof, guttering and telecommunications cable, while retaining the natural form, health and structural integrity of the tree. No unnecessary or excessive crown reduction is proposed. All arisings, branches and other tree waste generated by the works are to be removed from site on completion, leaving the area clean and tidy.
