26/02429/CPN - Work to tree(s) in Conservation Area Pending Consideration

Proposal

Leylandii hedge - reduction in height of ~1.5m. This is to prevent the hedge from growing into an adjacent sycamore tree and also to allow more light into our garden. The hedge is currently between 5 and 6m in height. The hedge comes under a tree preservation order by virtue of it being in a particular area. The trees are not specifically named with individual TPOs. Data via plota.co.uk
