Description

To fell two Katsuras between the buildings of 18 and 20. The trees have out grown the space for a healthy sustainable life span. Both are now brushing the rooves of number 20 and the roof and roof window of 18a causing noise in the bedroom when windy. Both trees are growing next to the (I believe) old Victorian wall dividing the properties and impacting on the integrity of its foundations. To reduce the conifers in the back garden to a hedge to the current lowest point to allow light into the rear of the garden again. To fell 2 self seeded yews too close to a healthy sycamore that is protected with a TPO . To fell a self seeded holly. Data via plota.co.uk
