    5 Butchers Lane, Seagrave, Leicestershire, LE12 7NR

    Received 6 Jun 2022
  21. Decided: GRANT CONDITIONALLYP/22/1069/2

    T1 - Quercus robur - Common Oak - Reduce height and span to create a more compact and balanced crown shape. Reduce vertical branches by 2.5 metres. Reduce lateral branches, overhanging neighbouring structures and gardens, by no more than 3.5 metres. Final cuts will ideally not exceed 100mm diameter. Previous works haven't tended to the lateral branches now growing over the neighbouring gardens. The tree appears to have been very heavily reduced in height in its past leaving a disproportionate crown shape. Previous works have left a high structural load on a large branch with a large wound adjacent to it at the very top of the tree. Most of the upper canopy emanates from this branch therefore removal and reduction of these branches should alleviate some of the load upon it and potential for it to fail causing further issues to the remaining tree. Tenants at the property and neighbours have both complained of the excessive shading.
