Approximate location: the centre of the postcode, not the exact property.

Proposal

The tree is a pedunculate oak located in the front garden of 16 May Lane, B47 5NT. We are not applying to fell the tree but to cut back so that branches do not overhang the roof of the property. The proposed works include lopping of three branches that overhang the roof of the property, along with some pruning of low hanging branches that obstruct the pavement adjacent the property. Oak (T1) ??? Crown reduction to 10m above ground level, to provide sufficient clearance to the front of the property. Small pruning works on the from of the tree at approximately 1.5 m to prevent encroachment on the pavement.
