  1. Decision MadeP24/S2972/TCA

    Apple tree - I would like to remove this as it is very large for my small garden, is too close to my boundary wall and attracts rats who climb up it and eat the apples. I want to replace it with two smaller flowering cherry trees or similar that will do well in the garden. I am also worried about apples falling and hurting someone or damaging my car.
