Council planning record

Group 3 of the TPO T1- Oak lift the crown to 5.2 m as a highway problem T2- Cypress - fell as area overcrowded causing trees to be unbalanced as not enough light and space. Also showing signs of decline with a great deal of dead wood. T3 - Beech lift to 3m and prune away from road sign allowing better visibility both for motorists and pedestrians. Group 4 T4 - Yew Fell again because the area is overcrowded and causing poor growth. T5 - Lift to the height of the purple plum to enable the plum to aid this specimen tree to grow better. T6 - Purple Plum may need a heavy branch shortened when the Cypress crown if lifted as it is resting on another branch. T7 - Holly - Fell again due to overcrowding and it will not change the amenity value and will benefit the surrounding trees. T8 - Cypress. This tree is in very close proximity to my house. It has been topped by previous owners leaving it prone to fail so it would be prudent to remove it. I am happy to restock with much more suitable trees where trees have been felled. Possibly Amelanchier, Malus or Prunus I do not feel that these works will have a negative impact on the area. In fact it should improve the look.
