16 Clermont Road Brighton Brighton & Hove BN1 6SG
The tree is an Acer Negundo situated in the front garden of 16, Clermont Road, Brighton. The tree has grown very large and needs to be reduced in size by about one third. It is also beginning to foul BT overhead telephone cables. The current dimensions of the Acer Negundo (Box Elder) tree at 16, Clermont Road are a height of 7 metres and a spread of 7 metres. At those dimensions, the height of the tree is causing it to start fouling overhead BT telecoms cables, and the spread is causing a sizeable overhang into the garden of number 17. I would like to reduce both the height and spread of the tree to 5 metres. The Acer Negundo is a fast-growing species, and this example was last reduced in size in March 2017 by this amount, and previously in 2012.
