  9. Decision MadeR26/0686

    Work recommended following an inspection of the trees carrried out by Jaime Bray MICFor, MArborA, Dip Arb (RFS). Lime (T1), Lime (T2), Lime (T3) and Lime (T4): Crown and thin by 20-25% and remove deadwood. Reason: recommendation of arborist for maintenance of trees. Some large deadwood is present in T1 which is adjacent to the Warwick Road pavement / highway which could be a hazard to pedestrians / road users if it fell. The trees also overhang the adjacent property Woodlands, Warwick Road. Lime (T4) has previously been reduced to 10 metres and may have a large cavity. We understand that Lime (T4) and Beech (T5) (which is no longer present) were removed from the TPO in February 2006, but is included here for the avoidance of doubt. N.B. the updated schedule / plan that we have refers to the location as 19 John Simpson Close which I think is clearly an error and should state 19 Warwick Road. T6 Scots Pine Branch Crown thin by 15% and remove large deadwood. Reason: recommendation of arborist. Many of the branches of the Scots Pine overhang the back garden of 12 John Simpson Close.

  18. Decision MadeR26/0533

    This application relates to two ash trees located within the hedgerow at 2 Bell Lane, Monks Kirby. The accompanying site plan identifies the trees as Ash 1 and Ash 2. Both trees have been inspected and are exhibiting symptoms consistent with Ash Dieback disease. Ash 1 has a number of compromised and declining limbs throughout the canopy. Approximately half of the canopy overhangs Main Street, which is a principal route through the village, including a bus route and access road to the local school. Due to the extent of the dieback, the presence of structurally weakened limbs, and the potential risk to highway users and pedestrians, permission is sought to fell Ash 1 on safety grounds. As part of the proposed works, gaps within the hedgerow will be replanted using species already present within the existing hedge, together with the planting of at least three native and/or fruit-bearing tree species to enhance local biodiversity and maintain the character of the conservation area. Ash 2 is also affected by Ash Dieback, with several limbs within the upper crown and central canopy showing signs of decline. In addition, significant ivy growth is present on the trunk, which is contributing to the trees deterioration and restricting inspection of the stem. Permission is therefore sought to: - Cut back the ivy growth on Ash 2 to approximately 5 feet above ground level and allow the remaining ivy to naturally die back; - Reduce the canopy by approximately 10 feet; and - Remove any dead, dying, or diseased limbs affected by Ash Dieback. The proposed works are intended to manage the trees responsibly, reduce risk to the public, and retain where possible the visual amenity and character of the site within the conservation area.
