Proposal

T1- Conifer. Remove to ground level. The applicant has a lovely garden that slopes steeply upwards and is surrounded on all sides by mature hardwood trees. The conifer in question has grown to a size now that they feel makes them feel hemmed in as it sits up the slope making it feel much bigger than it is.
