Council planning record

T1 1 x plane tree - crown lift to give clearance from ground level to approx 7m. The tree is approx 25 high and has a spread of approx 20m. The proposed work is within the parameters of the lifting detailed in BS3998. It will have minimal impact on the visual amenity to the wider landscape as it in a rear garden and covered by the houses. The work will improve the usability of the the gardens to the applicant and their neighbours. The work will involve removal of approx 3 or 4 branches back to the trunk, these are possibly matured epicormic as they grow from the the main crown break. Smaller lateral branches will be pruned to achieve the lift in other parts of the crown. A crown lift to 5m all round has previously been given on 2 occasions.
