26/01520/PTPO - Works to trees protected by TPO Pending Consideration

Proposal

T15 - Proposed works: Fell the tree to ground level. Reason for works: Following the removal of ivy, two large bark wounds have become visible. The tree is in poor condition and overhangs the A453. Due to the extent of the damage and its position over this busy road, the tree may present a risk to road users should branches or the tree fail. Felling is therefore considered necessary.
