Planning Application Details

T1841 Remove Dead branches. T1842 Reduce overall length of branches over car park back to the historic pruning points. T1843 Crown reduce canopy over road. T1844 Remove failed and Dead branches. T1845 Remove failed and Dead branches. T1846 Fell Tree; T1847 Remove Deadwood. T1848 Reduce length of lower primary branch over neighbours garden. T1849 Crown reduce lowest primary branch on east side to curb development and reduce weight. T1850 Remove Deadwood. T1846 (Ash) is further down this line of trees and is in severe decline due to Ash Dieback disease. This tree will continue to decline, and the wood will become brittle, causing small diameter branch loss initially and larger branch loss in the longer term. Therefore, this tree requires removal, and a suitable replacement tree should be planted nearby. T1847 (Sycamore) has become 'stag-headed' which is where the top dies, but the lower canopy can still be healthy. In the short to medium term, the dead parts of the canopy should be removed. T1848 (Ash) has a large branch growing over the neighbour's garden which is showing signs of adaption where the branch meets the parent stem. This is likely to be caused by the tree responding to the formation of a crack, by laying down extra wood to try and even out any stresses. Unfortunately, there is a historic pruning wound on top of this branch near the area of the crack and the associated decay pocket means this is a point of weakness. The branch is elongated and is starting to develop outside the canopy on the neighbour's side and therefore, I recommend a reduction in length of this branch to reduce end weight and the risk of failure. T1849 (Horse Chestnut) is growing next to the entrance footpath and driveway. The lowest primary branch on the eastern side is elongated and developing outside the canopy. Along t...
