Planning Application Details - 25/01725/TPC
T2 - Ash: (Fraxinus Excelsior) this tree has been reduced within the last 5 years to maintain a manageable height as it is within 3 metres of the house, The current height of this tree is 13 metres and I would like to carry out a 2 metre reduction back to previous points, leaving the tree at a final height of 11 metres. T1 - Silver Birch (Betula Pendula): which again was reduced within the last 5 years, I believe at the same time as the ash. This tree is 14 metres and we would be looking to carry out a 2 metre reduction to old points leaving the final height of the tree again at 12 metres. All cuts will be made at suitable growth points and the work will be carried out to BS3998. The main concern of this work is to reduce the overall sail area of the crown as they are both within falling distance of the house as well as regaining some light into the garden. Both trees will have the work carried out in early winter.
