Warmwell Leisure Resort Warmwell Road Crossways DT2 8JE

Proposal

G1 - Willow, Birch and Alder (trees and associated vegetation situated on the lake bank adjacent to Lodges 1–11): - Create and maintain eleven view corridors as shown on Drawing The lakes Plan set in front of Lodges 1 to 11 with the bank estimated at 142 metres in length. Each area will not exceed 1.5 metres in width measured along the lakeside frontage. - Within these corridors, remove selected Willow, Alder and Birch stems up to a maximum 100mm diameter and coppice Alder and Willow stools as necessary to maintain views. - Crown raise and prune selected trees within and immediately adjacent to the view corridors by removing secondary and suppressed lower or mid level branches only, where applicable to provide a maximum crown clearance of 2 metres above ground level or set from the aspect of the veranda. - Each area will selectively reduce and prune tertiary and secondary branches only and thinning aspects by 20 - 25% - Each aspect / opening will be created as a natural setting to allow light and give a visual to the lake from the lodges verandas. No aspects will be cut into block windows. Replacement Trees: No replacement planting is proposed as part of these works. Any trees removed will be limited to small dead specimens that do not make a significant contribution to the overall tree group or its amenity value. Should any tree of greater significance be identified during the course of the works, it will be retained where practicable. Where retention is not feasible, it will be appropriately accounted for.
