26/02864/CAT - Application to fell/lop in Cons Area Awaiting decision

Proposal

Tree by the garage - Remove branches that extend over the garage, reducing the overhanging growth and allowing adequate clearance from the garage and roof. The tree itself is to be retained. Dead/defective branches. Remove dead branches and other clearly defective or unsafe branches from the relevant trees where necessary. Four Conifers - Reduce the height of four conifers from approximately 5m to approximately 3m, retaining their overall form and allowing them to remain as established garden trees. Two self-seeded cherry trees - Remove, both growing approximately 1m from the boundary. Medium-sized Conifer - approximately 4m high removed. Silver birch trees - Crown management.
