Works to trees subject to a Tree Preservation Order, namely 1) Removal of Mature Poplar trees to ground level. The copse of extremely large Poplar trees have become too tall for their location and now pose significant risk to both Trelayne property and Myrtle cottage should any of the trees fail in similar storms to what we have witnessed recently. Many large limbs fell from the trees in the recent storms and a couple of the trees have shifted and are showing signs that they have uprooted within the wall that they are positioned. I have significant fears for the safety of my family and that of mine and my neighbours property. As these trees provide high amenity for local residents and local wildlife, I would like to retain the smaller Sweet Chestnut trees and replant a further Sweet Chestnut Tree and an English Oak. this will provide a large deciduous canopy that can be planted in such a way that at maturity of these trees, they will not be at risk of striking the properties, should they fail.
