  8. Decision MadeP24/S2493/TCA

    The tree type is unknown, but it is covered in ivy, making identification difficult. The tree's health is poor because of the extensive ivy growth. The ivy is likely causing structural damage and nutrient deprivation, reducing the tree's lifespan and potential for growth. The tree is located on the side of the road (High Street North Moreton) with branches overhanging, at the bottom of the driveway of 2 Parkside Cottages High Street North Moreton, on the right hand side when looking at the property. The tree does not hold significant value in the local surroundings, primarily because it is unhealthy and aesthetically unappealing due to the ivy. Its removal would not detract from the local environment and could potentially allow for more suitable vegetation to thrive in its place. Proposed work: Complete Felling: The entire tree, including the main trunk and all branches, will be cut down. This will be carried out by a qualified tree surgeon to ensure safety and efficiency. All ivy covering the tree will be removed to prevent it from spreading to other vegetation. The site will be thoroughly cleaned, with all waste material disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
