To remove mature beech tree situated on the left hand side of front boundary next to both property and neighbouring property.To be removed due to being far to large for its surroundings growing way over property roof and windows. as well as showing extensive surface roots (pictures shown in application).Showing fears of potential subsidence to property.Replacement Fagus sylvatica to be planted in its place.

My requests fall broadly into three areas summarised below. However, in total, I am making 6 requests (A - F below). 1) This relates PT 1 - PT 5 on enclosed map. These changes - overall - will align the size and shape of the main trees (PT1, 2 and 3), removing overhanging or damaged branches, and improve light access for all trees. it will also support the growth of PT4, PT5 and NPT1 & NPT 2A) PT1 - Oak - Remove dead or damaged wood, reduce overhanging bilateral branches by 2 meters, and Crown thinning of up to 20%, to increase light to garden and surrounding trees. B) PT 2 - Cherry - Crown reduction by maximum of 3 meters. To align height and shape to PT 1 and PT 3 C) PT3 - Sweet Chestnut -Crown reduction by maximum of 3 meters. remove damaged branch overhanging property / seating area.D) PT4 - Holly Tree - Reduce height by no more than 2 meters, and bilateral branches by no more than 1 meter (to maintain shape). 2) This relates to PT 6, 8, and 9 on enclosed map, this change is to ensure good woodland management. Due to lean and poor crown shape, felling PT 6 will drastically improve light to PT9 and PT8 which are becoming over shadowed. it will also improve light to PT7 and NPT 3. E) Fell PT6 - Larch - to ground level, as it is a poor specimen and it will allow the continued growth and health of PT8 and 9 (as well as trees and foliage that are within a neighbouring property). 3) This relates to a group of 15 conifers labelled GT1. 7 of these trees were pruned in 2014, but 8 were not. Overall, their height aligns to the roof level (some to roof ridge level). I would like to restore these (or complete an initial prune) to align all conifers to the 2nd floor window height. F) Reduce the hight of 15 trees by between 2 and 3 meters and uniform their height and align to 2nd floor window. Rationale: Some of the trees within the copse land to the rear of our property have had some works carried out in 2014, but largely the trees and copse area as a w...
