26/00844/TWCA - Tree Work In Conservation Area Approved

Proposal

Group 1 - 9 x leylandii & 1 lombardy poplar - fell, chemical stump treatment (poplar), stump grinding. the trees within G001 are part of an overgrown boundary hedge, the hedge was planted in 2012 and has remained unmaintained since, a reduction has been considered but leylandii hedges do not regenerate from cut wood, the reduced hedge would look unsightly and wouldn't provide adequate low level screening. on completion of the felling the hedge will be replaced with a multi species native hedgerow.
