Council sourceNotification of works to an oak tree on the frontage of Holly House, 23 Church Street, Pinchbeck. The tree is within Pinchbeck Conservation Area. Works proposed: Major works to reduce the spread of the tree yet retain the central more upright growing branches. Cut back to a minimum of four main upright branches and allow to re-grow. This to include the removal of branches growing over the road, those growing towards the adjacent dwellings also those obstructing a telegraph pole. Branches will also require some pruning to give clearance to wires. Aim to achieve a tree with an upright branching structure. (It is difficult to fully assess the structure of the tree from ground level due to the presence of ivy. If the central structure is found to be particularly weak with re-growth from previous cuts once works commence, it may be required to reduce the height of the crown. Under this letter the crown may be reduced in height by no more than three metres, to existing growth points).
