Received 29 Jul 2026 - Permitted26/00686/TPO
T1 Copper Beech - 30% crown reduction approximately 3m from tips. Raise canopy to 6m to clear traffic using the road and create a balanced form. Reason: The location offers considerable impact on the rear garden. Without size management the tree would ultimately completely cover the garden preventing light and growing of plants etc. It is proposed to manage the tree with cyclical crown reductions to control canopy size and prevent gross conflict with the owners use of their garden.
