26/01319/TREE - Works to Protected Tree In progress

Proposal

T1 Sycamore - reduce 1.5m laterally away from driveway and house, prune to clear overhead cable by 1m. Reason: to clear building and phone line, and to reduce bird droppings and detritus on driveway and parked cars. The majority of this work will not be visible from the road so there will be no loss of amenity value. Total photosynthetic volume reduction will be less than 10% so there will be minimal impact on the tree. T2 Sycamore - reduce 2m laterally away from driveway and patio. Reason: to reduce bird droppings and detritus on driveway and parked cars. The result of this work will not be visible from the road so there will be no loss of amenity value. Total photosynthetic volume reduction will be less than 10% so there will be minimal impact on the tree. Data via plota.co.uk
