Proposal
T1 Sycamore - It is proposed to undertake a crown reduction of approximately 3 metres, reducing the overall height and spread of the tree while retaining its natural form and structural integrity. The proposed works are intended to reduce the overall size and weight of the crown, improve the tree's structural balance and reduce the potential risk associated with excessive growth and heavy branches, particularly during periods of strong winds and adverse winter weather. The intention is to retain the tree as a healthy and established garden tree while bringing its size and structure under better management. Data via plota.co.uk
Application progress
Under consideration
No decision has been issued yet. Plota predicts a decision around 5 Nov 2026, from East Cambridgeshire's recent tree and landscaping works.
