Proposal

TPO No. 43 (Park Hill) 1974, T7 London plane. The tree is identified as T4 London plane in the submitted application. Pollard tree to previous pruning points - routine maintenance, too large for environment, very close to house. Height from 16.0m to 14.0m Crown spread from 7.0m to 5.0m Council Note: The submitted application identifies the tree as T4. The Council has assessed the application against the deposited Tree Preservation Order records, which identify the relevant protected tree as T7 London plane under Tree Preservation Order No. 43 (Park Hill) 1974. Previous consent for reduction of a London plane at the Park Hill frontage back to previous reduction points has been considered as relevant tree works history.
