Little Stover 60 Camp Road Gerrards Cross Buckinghamshire SL9 7PD Data via plota.co.uk

PL/26/03373/TP - Works to trees covered by TPO Approved

Proposal

T1 Conifer - Remove as tree is causing disturbance to the boundary wall next to the drive entrance and has become too big for its location. T2 Sorbus - Remove as tree has died from suspected bleeding canker. T3 Maple - Reduce the height of the tree by 3-4 metres and sides by 1-2 metres to shape. This reduction is recommended as a response to the recent large branch failure suffered by this tree. The reduction will make safe the still standing section where the failure occurred and improve the aesthetic appearance of the remaining tree. Data via plota.co.uk
