Description

G1 - Conifer Trees - Fell - The existing trees are fast-growing conifer species that are not well suited to their current proximity to a residential care environment. Their scale and density are inappropriate for the confined setting and are out of keeping with the character and long-term management objectives of the conservation area. The trees restrict safe and adequate access for emergency vehicles, including fire appliances and ambulances. Unimpeded access is critical for a nursing home where residents may have limited mobility and require urgent medical intervention.
