I have 3 trees at the back of my garden which over hang my fence but require permission for me to work on. The reason I want to cut the branches which over hang back are because there are a lot of dead branches as the trees have intertwined. I have a daughter on the autism spectrum and the garden is her main play area due to being uncomfortable with lots of people indoors. Branches continually fall from the trees into my garden. Also I have stone at the back and the branches completely cover the back from sun causing moss and extremely slippy surface in damp conditions. I wish only to cut the branches back to my fence. I don't want to remove or touch the trunks of the trees, just the branches causing dangerous conditions in my garden. (Applicant has photos but would not send due to size).

Removal of Cypress Trees (Marked on sketch as T1 - Trees) Fell to ground Due to a ground level change with my neighbour (6 Eliot Close) where the trees are situated, my ground level is higher, and due to the previous owners poor landscaping, damage has been caused to the existing fence and decking area, which now need to be replaced and maintained. I propose to remove the existing trees which provide little in the way of amenity and its loss will not adversely impact on the character or amenity of the area. Once the repairs have been undertaken, I will seek advice for suitable replacement, quantity, species, position and size.

Trees 1 and 2 are both birch trees. They have not produced leaves or shown any growth for over 18 months. A tree surgeon from Special Branch 24/7 Tree Surgeons has identified that they are dead. If they were to fall they could cause damage to fences and the owner's or the neighbour's property. It is proposed that they should be felled. Two similar trees can be planted within 2m of the current locations.
