Proposal

Remove birch (identified as T13 on the attached tree plan) as part of works to address seasonal clay soil shrinkage that is causing damage to the property. Birch is a mature tree 5m tall, approximately 8m from the damage site and has grown outsized for it's location. Remove close to ground level and treat stump with herbicide to inhibit regrowth. Subsequently remove stump once deceased. New trees (plum and damson at T15) have been installed further from the property at the rear of the premises.
