Request to fell 2x trees identified as T1 and T2. Both are large C Cupressosyparis Leylandi. Works are:- fell to ground, grind out stumps and all arisings. Rationale:- 1) Concern from neighbouring property re impact on light and shading which is affecting the growth of their lawn, plus a request to have T1 and T2 removed as a result of these issues. 2) The amenity of the rear rooms of 32 Haringey Park is also affected, as they do not get much daylight as a result of T1 and T2; 3) The trees themselves have a low amenity value - they were not maintained regularly when young so they have straggly limbs and the lower trunks are bare; 4) Both T1 and T2 are showing signs of distress at present 5) The ongoing maintenance cost of professional pruning is considerable; 6) Hard pruning trees of this size & maturity runs the risk of them dying off; 7) Cutting into the sides to reduce the lateral spread often reveals bare wood which will not generate new growth; 8) Denuded soil under the trees from lower pH levels and extreme dryness makes them difficult to underplant; 9) The trees are often affected by storms and high winds, and branches have fallen into the neighbouring garden several times, causing a hazard. Replacement As part of a substantial new planting scheme to the wider garden this area would be replanted with large shrubs and hedgerow plants which will provide sufficient privacy screening and attract a vastly greater and more diverse wildlife population.
