Two scots pine situated immediately behind our rear boundary fence. Branches from the tree overhang our land significantly and are close to touching the property. The debris from over-hanging branches has damaged garden furniture and other structures. The needles block guttering and overhanging branches house pigeons with persistent excrement on furniture etc... work to the trees will include some crown lifting and some crown reduction. Lower spreading branches to be removed. Reduction on other overhanging branches to fence/boundary line. Height of trees will remain the same - spread reduced approx 50%

The removal of a section of southern boundary rear garden hedging and its placement with fencing of a similar height. This section of hedging is diseased and dying. The section is up to 30ft long with a trimmed height of 10/11ft Planning consent C12/2396) dated 27 June 2012, contained obligations concerning our rear southern boundary to do with maintaining its integrity. We assume, to protect our neighbours privacy from being overlooked from the proposed balcony. In particular, it states:- 'Any trees or hedgerows removed, dying, being severely damaged or becoming seriously diseased within five years.....shall be replaced....' As this five year window has expired, our interpretation of the guidance is we could removed the diseased section and replace with new hedging or normal garden fencing, or, as the southern boundary is not our legal responsibility but our neighbours, do nothing. However, we feel this would be unsatisfactory as it would not provide our neighbour with adequate protection from being overlooked. A new hedge would take a substantial number of years to reach a suitable height and may, in any case, fail for the same reasons as the current hedge. We there propose to replace the hedge with fencing of an appropriate height. This fencing to comprise of concrete posts with timber panels. It would be up to 30ft in length and 11ft in height and would provide the neighbour with the same level of privacy as historically enjoyed.

Replace existing 1.8m fence and gate to back garden due to fence posts and fence being rotten, aligning fence to house edge to create extra space for recycle bins etc to be hidden from road. Replace 0.7m chain link fence bordering no 8 with a 1.8m solid timber fence, decreasing at stages (approx every 3.6m) to 1m stopping 1.6m from road side. The fence is topped with open curved diamond and is supported by concrete posts and gravel boards. The front fence is a common style mimicking most back fences in the area and with the trellis at the front it is similar with another boundary fence in the cul de sac. We plan to do more planting to soften the edges with climbing plants (e.g. honeysuckle and clematis) which will flower to attract birds, bees and other wildlife.

Yew Tree House is timber-framed and rough-case rendered with roofs in a mixture of glazed and red clay pantiles. The former farmhouse was built in the late 16th century and has since been divided into two. The proposal is to remove the existing hedge that marks the front boundary between the two houses, planted in 1960s. The privet-style hedge is approximately 4ft 6in high, 2ft wide and 46ft long and has become unwieldy, bulges in places and does not reach the front boundaries of the property. After taking advice from East Suffolk Conservation Office, the replacement natural planed wood picket fence will be 4ft high and 50 ft long. The fence will be treated with Alkaline Copper Quat to protect it against decay, rot and insect attack without the use of harmful chemicals. The hedge will be removed late summer or early autumn to avoid disturbing any nesting birds.
