Council planning record

There is a large copse of Ash Trees on the embankment behind Imagination House. The trees have now matured and are dominating the skyline meaning hardly any sunlight is entering the houses to the right hand side or to the rear of Imagination House. Neighbours have now taken it on themselves to cut various species of plants that are encroaching towards the property. I believe unless the trees are dealt with professionally then the trees will suffer the same fate. The owner of the land receives multiple complaints annually regarding the trees and now professional advice has been sought. It is proposed that around 25 Ash trees are thinned out, mainly from the top of the embankment and also the right hand side of the copse that runs along the boundary of the houses.
