Approximate location: the centre of the postcode, not the exact property.

Proposal

Coppicing of approximately 18 medium - Large mature trees within hanging wood. Mostly Ash and Sycamore. The woodland also comprises of mixed understory that would also be coppiced. The hedge running under the trees would be retained and potential laid once larger work has been completed. I haven't individually numbered each tree, the works are being described at a stand of trees for this application. Including the smaller trees in the understory there may be as many as 40 trees that would need numbering. Larger trees have been marked on site with red spray that shows extent of work on the ground. Trees are being removed due to them heavily overhanging neibouring propertys. Castlle Mill farmhouse and Rose cottage.
