Planning application
9 Stockwell Road Wolverhampton West Midlands WV6 9PQ
Works: Trees
Refused. Only the applicant can appeal, within the statutory time limit, and a revised scheme can be submitted instead.
Proposal
Since the original planning report was submitted (originally 2017 and then updated for 2023), T320 has deteriorated significantly and we believe it will cause an unacceptable safety risk to users of the road which is passing under part of the canopy. In addition, the revised road alignment would impact the RPA of T320 by 22.33% and technically this tree would therefore require removal. (Although, it is already 21% on the approved road alignment). T314, whilst in better condition than T320, is a low quality tree whose removal would have no impact on the visual amenity of the site. The new road alignment will impact on RPA of T314 by 35.86% and technically this tree would therefore require removal. (although its already 24% on current road alignment). By altering the road position we propose to retain the following trees which were originally due to be removed: T301, T328, T329, T330. In order to offset the removal of T314 and T320 we would specifically look to provide two new trees which reflect the landscape character of the period: 1Nr. Wellingtonia (Giant Redwood), 1Nr. Coast redwood. We would look to locate them in the open grassy area which would provide them with the opportunity to reach maturity. In addition, we have also provided a landscape plan which proposes 16 new trees and extensive planting to massively enhance the landscape over the currently overgrown and unkept site.

T34 - Sweet Chestnut - Reduction to crown by 1 - 1.5m or to a suitable growth point. This work has been specified by PGE landscaping on a tree survey report; I am struggling to justify or give any reasoning for this specification. I would prefer to lift crown to 2.5m from ground level and deadwood. Cedar branch to be removed from Silver Birch crown. Car park tree (Birch) has grown and now rubbing on cedar limb, remove limb or cut back to a suitable growth point. C/A Trees T18 - Holly - Coppice tree to 1m. This small tree has grown over fence and is heavily suppressed on one side.

Nuffield Hospital Wood Road Wolverhampton West Midlands WV6 8LE
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.
