12 Avondale Road Wolverhampton West Midlands WV6 0AJ
The 4 trees are in the grounds of Bromford Dale, Albert Road, Wolverhampton, WV6 0BA and are adjacent to the boundary with my property at 12 Avondale Road. The trees are limes and create excessive shading of my garden if not regularly maintained. In 2018 I obtained permission from the owners of Bromford Dale, Bromford Homes, to carry out some work to reduce the shading created by the trees if I obtained permission from the local authority as the trees are protected by TPOs. I duly applied to the Planning Dept. of Wolverhampton City Council and was granted permission to lift the crowns to 6m and remove epicormic growth. I appointed an approved tree surgeon (Nick Sims, Tettenhall Tree Surgery) to carry out the work. Because the lime trees produce profuse epicormic growth, this needs to be removed every couple of years to reduce the shading it creates. I contacted the planning dept. again in 2020 to allow the removal of new epicormic growth below the crown. This was permitted on the basis that the previous permit had not expired. I am now reapplying for permission for the tree surgeon to again remove the new epicormic growth below the crown from the 4 trees.

T1 - Lime Reduce back to previous pruning points/knuckles. This tree has been managed historically on a cyclical basis T2 - Lime Reduce back to previous pruning points/knuckles. This tree has been managed historically on a cyclical basis T3 - Lime Reduce back to previous pruning points/knuckles. This tree has been managed historically on a cyclical basis T4 - Lime Reduction of no more than 2m This tree has been missed as part of the pollarding cycle. The lime tree sits alongside three other limes T1,2 &3 (and a pear) that are managed as an established pollard line or group. Leaving one unmanaged tree disrupts the uniform appearance, balance, and visual symmetry of the feature. To establish visual continuity and structural uniformity within an existing group of historically managed trees. Bringing this final lime into harmony with the adjacent three pollarded limes will enhance the overall amenity and cohesive appearance of the garden boundary/feature. Initiating a managed pollard regime at this stage in the tree's development ensures future containment, preventing the tree from outgrowing its spatial constraints and reducing the likelihood of heavy, unmanaged interventions later in its maturity. This work can then take place gradually over the next 2-3 years T5 - Pear Reduce back to previous pruning points/knuckles. This tree has been managed historically on a cyclical basis

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.
