Proposal

T1 - Poplar - fell T10 - Poplar - fell both trees have been granted permission under a 5 day notice to reduce to a 4m pollard, our reason for applying now for a fell is that the 4m pollard is not worth retaining as its going to be a poor example of TPO trees. The owner wishes to fell and replace with new trees
