Proposal
Prune trees and fell one tree (Tree in Conservation Area)T016 is a semi-mature goat willow, positioned beneath a streetlamp on Harrison Road, which has historically been topped. It is proposed that the tree is removed and replaced with a new tree at a more appropriate on site location. G001 is a group containing five semi- and early-mature beech. Branches extending east over Harrison Road contravene the statutory highway clearance (5.2 m). It is therefore proposed that branches extending east from G001 are crown lifted/reduced to achieve statutory highway clearance.
