Council planning record

The tree is identified as "Acer Platanoides" (Crison King), a vigorous deciduous tree with deep reddish purple leaves - the eventual height and width being 100 ft x 75 ft.The intention is to fell and remove this tree because of excessive shading and low amenity value and replace it in a suitable position with a smaller mature friendly alternative that does not cause light loss to adjoining property owners. The tree in question was planted by previous owners approx 10 years ago. It is still a young tree but already 30 ft high, so will totally swamp the small space it is growing in. Although because of its age it is no affecting the wall adjoining the properties it is likely, given its potential size, to do so in future. Owing to the dense, almost black foliage, the tree also dominates the surrounding gardens, blocking out the light to the detriment of air space.
