Proposal

1. Ash tree at 2 Churston Road. The tree is to the north east of the house and is growing with in a meter of the side wall of the house. Due to distance from the house the trees branches are growing into the house and the roots are damaging the wall and pavement. For this reason we would like to remove the tree. 2. Dead tree in the hedge in front of Churston Court Farm. A hedge of trees run in front of Churston court farm, in front of one of the farm building one of the trees is clearly dead. For this reason we would like to remove the tree from the hedgerow. Data via plota.co.uk
