The Vicarage Church End Over CB24 5NX

21/0078/TTCAWorks to CA treesAwaiting decision

Proposal

The additional information I've just found out is that the trees are largely a mix of maple and hazel. The boarder is a effectively a "hedge" of mixed trees that have grown tall over time. In May 2019 they were reduced in height to approx 2.5 metres by surgeons employed by the Diocese of Ely. (This cut line can be seen in photo trees1)Please can I have permission to cut the trees again to this same height. Ideally, can I have ongoing permission to keep the boarder at this height.They cause excessive shading if allowed to grow unhindered.
