Council sourceThe planning application is coming from house number 28 at which I live and I am applying on behalf of myself and my neighbours (with their consent) as the tree is planted on the border but in number 30's garden. The tree is a Magnolia and has just grown too large that it is touching our house (number 28) from the garden 30. It is also touching the telephone wires and interfering with them. It needs to be trimmed at the sides and at the top to reduce its height and width. The tree will not be removed but simply reshaped and tidied. Where it is touching the house it is knocking against the guttering and also it is making the house very dark inside due to its size.
