26/00182/TPW - Tree Works Under TPO Approved

Proposal

Group of Portuguese Laurel - reduction of 50% from 6 metres to 3 metres from the top and from 7 metres to 4 metres in width, This is to keep this in a manageable state and all work will be carried out to suitable growth points. Group of Holly trees along the drive - remove entirely and replace with 3 x Horse Chestnut trees in the same place to continue the existing avenue along the driveway. There are two large dead hollys amongst this group and to make this safe and more manageable in the future a planting plan including three Horse Chestnuts planted in situ will make most sense.
