Proposal

T1 - Mature sycamore (self-set) - Removal to ground level and treatment of stump with eco-plugs. Justification: The self-set sycamore has become established directly against a listed boundary wall that borders both a neighbouring property and the Emmanuel College grounds, including the school playground area. Due to the trees root system becoming entrenched within the wall structure, it is now exerting pressure on the wall and pushing it out of alignment. The condition of the wall has visibly deteriorated and there are concerns that structural failure may occur if the situation is allowed to progress. Given the proximity to areas used by the public and school pupils, this raises clear safety and public liability concerns.
