Section A - 7 Beech trees to be reduced in height by approximately 2m and shaped to leave a globular look. Section B - There is a group of mixed species trees made up of Hawthorn and Beech. We would like to cut these back to the boundary. Section C - A large Apple tree which is not fruiting very well. We would like permission to pollard this tree and take around 3m in height off the top. Section D - A large heavy ivy clad Conifer, approximately 80-90ft in height. We would like permission to remove this tree. There are 6 other Conifers adjacent to this tree so there is not expected to be any impact to street scenery. Section E - There are two Hazel trees. We would like to reduce both by approximately 2m in height and aesthetically shape. Section F - There is an Apple tree we would like permission to pollard approximately 2m out of the height. Section G - there is a small Apple tree around 2m in height, which has not been fruiting for the last 5 years and has some large cavities at the base. We would like permission to remove this tree.
