35 Shawhurst Lane Hollywood Birmingham Worcestershire B47 5HL
I am seeking permission to fell the oak tree in the front garden of 35 Shawhurst Lane Hollywood Birmingham B47 5HL and would be more than happy to replant appropriate tree for the size of the front garden. The reasoning for seeking this permission is as follows - The tree is 8.5 metres from the property and we understand that a safe distance is should really be 30 metres for the size of the tree. It is now causing the footpath to bulge and the tree is listing towards the road. The footfall is frequent as there are 2 schools in the vicinity on the same road. Its canopy is now overhanging the highway footpath and getting closer to the property and the neightbours property. The tree is on a slight bend and the road is frequently used by school buses public buses lorries as a rabbit run to nearby Shirley Solihull and Redditch. The heavy fall of acorns in the Autumn leaves a large amount on the footpath and road and this causes problems when people are walking. Telecom cables which go through the canopy of the tree feed this property and adjascent properties eitherside. I have had to speak to the insurers to establish that the tree is fully insured should it fall onto the property. I have noticed there is a large amount of crossing branches and dead wood. Please note this house has been in my family since it was built in 1966 so I am fully aware of how big and potentially dangerous the tree has now become and is overtaking the highway and houses.

Tree T1 was surveyed by us in October 2020 as part of a mortgage survey before a house purchase. The report is a combined VTA/5837 report. The reason for this approach was to ascertain the radial RPA of T1as there has been development very close to this tree. it is our belief that the tree has been damaged by the construction works evidenced by google earth imagery showing no tree protection at the time of construction and the obvious decline in vitality of the tree. Although it does not pose an immediate danger we have recommended the tree is removed whilst it is easy to do so. It is understood that a TPO has been applied to the tree and the client would be willing to carry out mitigation planting.
