Description

The proposal is to remove a small wild cherry tree (prunus avium) that is growing in the front garden, next to the gate. The reason for removal is that the tree is competing with a larger Magnolia tree, which is the main feature of the front garden. Having spoken with tree surgeons, we are of the view that there is not sufficient space to accommodate both trees, and that reducing or reshaping the tree is unlikely to result in an attractive and healthy-looking tree. It is also close to the garden wall so is likely to cause damage to the wall as it grows larger. The tree would be replaced by a range of planting, including roses, evergreen shrubs, and climbing plants along the wall. Data via plota.co.uk
