Old Pool Hall Main Street Pool In Wharfedale Otley LS21 1LH Data via plota.co.uk

26/01881/TR - Tree Works Approved

Proposal

Group of 10 Poplar: The tree closest to the streetlamp shows severe basal decay and significant limb dieback extending over the road. Due to the extent of decay and associated risk, this tree is recommended for removal. The remaining poplars are recommended to be re-pollarded to 3.2m hight, (see photo) in line with the previous lower pollard framework, in order to re-establish a manageable canopy and reduce future risk. Works will be undertaken using an access platform from within the garden perimeter. Data via plota.co.uk
