PA26/04134 - Tree Preservation Order Approved

Proposal

Works to trees subject to a Tree Preservation Order (TPO): T1 (Monterey Pine) - reduce the spread of the lower part of the crown which encroaches the furthest over Thurlby, reducing it back by approximately 2.5 metres to suitable points. T2 (Monterey Pine) - reduce these overhanging branches back from over the property by approximately 3 meters to suitable pruning points, leaving enough foliage for the limb to remain viable.
