26/01147/TPC - Tree In A Conservation Area Approved

Proposal

Leyland Cypress (x5). T1 (denoted by arrow in photos): Full removal (felling).To prevent structural damage as the tree is encroaching over the property's garage and conservatory. T2, T3, T4 & T5: The way the trees have been cut at present it would be near impossible to reduce them and provide meter measurements, so crown thin of 10-15%. In short, the previous owner must've pruned these trees - to a poor standard, and I would like to remove poorly cut branches and over hanging branches to allow for a greater appearance a regrowth opportunity. Maintenance and tidying of previously pruned crowns. Data via plota.co.uk
