1. Beech Hedge - trimmed to c.3m in height and maintained at this height. There is a Beech hedge adjacent to my property that has been allowed to grow to a height which is restricting the light onto my property and significantly overhanging my boundary. The hedge was never intended to be trees (c.27 beech trees in less than 8m) and at one stage was cut to c.8 foot. Since then it has been allowed to grow and if it continues will cause significant issues with our property. The trees/hedge are approximately 6 metres tall. The hedge is on a strip of land that is owned by Barratts Development PLC. The hedge is between my house (9 Filbert Grove) and Treen House. It is <1m from my fence boundary.

Discharge of conditions 3 (Details of perimeter boundary fence) of application 18/00678/REM (Approval of Reserved Matters (Landscaping) on application 17/01572/OUT for (Outline application for the construction of a 55 bed assisted living and a 77 bed care home development together with associated communal facilities, access, basement car, cycle and mobility scooter parking, refuse storage area, landscaped grounds and associated works following demolition of existing buildings))

T1: T1: Fell to ground. Dead pine. Approximately 10 metres high. One metre from footpath which has public right of way. It will become a risk of falling. No replanting to allow development of surrounding trees (including Oak labelled T6 on diagram, the trunk of the oak is 4ms from dead pine. The oak has a canopy of approx. 20ms circumference)" Hedge: A holly hedge on the North West boundary is dying gradually. Presumably, the overhanging birch (T2 and T3) and oak branches (T4, T5 and T6) in our neighbours garden have provided inadequate light for it to survive. Several dead holly trunks have been removed over several years. Other dead trunks remain. The trunks now have extensive growth of ivy and climbing weed. The holly hedge bordering the house is unsightly for the neighbours (Anfield). It has no amenity value. We would like to remove the line of holly hedge as marked above and replace with a fence. The holly hedge away from the house and bordering the garden remains strong and will remain as it is. There is no record in our deeds to suggest the hedge has a protection order. We have 50 ms of holly hedge elsewhere in the garden. Please confirm that permission is not required to remove the dying/dead holly hedge, or please provide approval.
