Council planning record

An English yew, Taxus baccata in the centre of the churchyard. The branches are sweeping low to the ground and we intend to trim the lower branches to a height of up to 2.7 metres above the ground. This is a repeat of work that was done previously under notified Conservation area works. Currently the branches obscure both the tree bench and graves beneath the tree. I have three photographs, one of which shows the state after the last time it was trimmed in 2015, and two which show the current state.
