P0725/26/TCA - Trees within a Conservation Area Approved

Proposal

Fell Horse Chestnut tree in southern corner of the garden, which extends over the High Street and Stanford Road. The tree has a large, dead limb causing decay in the centre of the trunk. Due to the decay, there is a high likelihood of the southern limb cleaving off and falling into the High street over the next few years, causing potential injury to persons and property.
