Trees & landscaping

Proposal

Works to tree with a TCA: T1- Magnolia: Prune back the overgrown Magnolia tree located on the front patio. Pruning is intended to reduce the extent of the overgrowth and prevent further contact with the building, while retaining the tree and its contribution to the appearance of the property and conservation area. T2 -Apple tree (Malus pumila): Remove one mature Apple tree (Malus pumila) located in the rear garden, approximately 1.5 metres from the property. T3 -European Plum (Prunus domestica): Remove one European Plum (Prunus domestica) located in the rear garden, approximately 10 metres from the property and positioned on the boundary fence between the two properties.
