View council mapTrees T1-T12 - Ash Trees of varying maturity. All are in various stages of Ash Dieback according to a survey and report by Evans Treecare. Propose to fell the trees before they become a hazard to the property and whilst in a condition for the tree surgeon to carry out the works safely. It is hoped that works can commence at the earliest opportunity before a leaf canopy develops. My neighbours have no objection. The woodland is very dense and within the immediate vicinity of the affected trees are well established fir, oak, hazel and sycamore trees. I do not wish to re-plant. A visit by a case office in 2023/24 following a 2021 successful application confirmed that re-planting was not necessary given the sloping terrain, the existing healthy trees and the density of the woodland.
