Application overview
Walton Bridge Street/Church Street Conservation Area - We have 2 cherry trees one on our driveway and one in our back garden. Both are c10m high. We wish to prune them so that the large overhanging branches are reduced by approx 1m. Currently the tree branches overhang our driveway and the pavement next to our house and across our neighbours back garden (the tree is by a shared fence).
