Council sourceBack Garden (Left Boundary) #T1: Fig tree - Fell to ground level, install specialist poison to kill stump and prevent regeneration (stump remaining) Height of tree currently: 4M Height of tree after reduction: 0M Spread of tree currently: 3M Spread of tree after reduction: 0M (Right Boundary) #T2: Bay tree - Reduce height by 1m, trim to shape by 0.5m Height of tree currently: 4M Height of tree after reduction: 3M Spread of tree currently: 3m Spread of tree after reduction: 2.5m Reasons for Work Application #T1 Fig Tree - The tree has significantly outgrown the size of the garden and is suppressing the growth of surrounding shrubs due to shading and competition for light and nutrients. Its removal will allow the remaining planting to establish properly and will make the garden more usable for the family. #T2: The bay tree is proposed for general tree maintenance only, to reduce and shape the canopy and retain it at a manageable size appropriate for its location.
