    REAR: ONE Eucalyptus tree (T1) Ht 12.5m Spread 8m FELL.REASON: The tree is in an inappropriate location overhanging the railway. CA permission was granted 2 years ago for a reduction, ref DC/24/134788, which was applied for when a previous resident lived at the property. This work was not carried out.

It will also pose a hazard to the railway lines if allowed to continue growing.Informative A: repeat low pollard management to ht.3m to retain some urban greening or to plant a replacement tree for amenity, wildlife and shade to reduce increasingly high summer temperatures due to climate change is encouraged.Informative B: replacement tree encouraged, species such as hawthorn, common pear, crab apple, elder, Alder buckthorn, whitebeam, hazel, field maple, holly. Informative C: please create habitat log piles and a 'dead hedge' with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity.
