Received 21 May 2026 - Approved26/0405/TCA
Lime tree in verge adjacant to 13 Summer Place, Kidderminster. It is proposed to reduce the crown of the tree back to its previous reduction points. The crown is currently in direct contact with the nearby dwelling of no.13, the lamp coloumn and footway. To reduce the need for ongoing, constant pruning, back from these features, it would be prudent to 're-reduce' the tree, leaving a balanced and symmetrical branch framework.
