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.

Oak standing in hedge boundary between Pen Y Bryn/Hill House and Lime Tree Cottage and overhangs driveways of both sides. Proposed 30% crown reduction and ivy removal.

TPO 217:2007 T1 Sycamore: Fell. This is a large tree (approx 16m high) located on the rear boundary of a small domestic garden; the garden space measures approx 5.5m from the rear of the house to the rear boundary. The tree stem leans northwards over the garden and overhangs the entire garden, the edge of the canopy overhangs the rear of the house. Given these factors the tree has an extremely oppressive effect on the garden area and causes excessive shade. The tree is visible when viewed from points along the High Street, however it is otherwise of no special merit and its removal would not have a significant adverse impact on the amenity of surrounding areas.
