Proposal

T1 & T2 Cypress - Remove. These two tree both have recent limb failures from the base. The failed branches went over the footpath. The forks at the base are very weak and given the trees are getting taller, the forks are becoming weaker. The area around the trees on all sides is high usage with multiple targets. The trees are not pretty, they offer limited amenity and need to be removed on safety grounds. T3 Elm - This tree is dead and requires removal. T4 is considered under application 24/04440/TPO.
