Proposal

This application is for ONGOING CONSENT to the trees listed below T1- Twisted Willow. Pollard annually (or bi-annually depending on annual rate of growth) down to a height of between 4 and 5 feet. This work will manage the size and retain the ornamental value/feature of the twisted branches. T2- Plum tree. This is a fan-trained tree and needs annual pruning to retain the shape, size and ensure production of fruit T3- Greengage tree. This is a fan-trained tree and needs annual pruning to retain the shape, size and ensure production of fruit. T4 - Apple tree- this is a small, old apple tree that requires annual pruning to retain shape, size and ensure production of fruit T5 - Apple tree- this is a small, old apple tree that requires annual pruning to retain shape, size and ensure production of fruit. T6a and T6b - 2 Yew trees planted & trained to form an arch, height and width reduction on an annual basis. T 7 and T8 - 2 small Apple trees fan trained. Need annual pruning to retain shape, size and ensure fruit production. T9 and T10- 2 Sycamore trees in 78 Station Road up against the boundary fence. 2 years ago these trees were reduced significantly by the tree owners. In the 2 years since pruning re-growth has been rapid from the main trunk. These hang over into 86 Station Road, significantly reducing sunlight reaching the established fruit and vegetable beds in 86 Station Road reducing productivity. The branches will soon be over/touching/leaning onto the roof of the potting shed in 86 Station Road and could damage the roof. This application is for annual (or bi-annual depending on the rate of growth) removal of re-growth (to the boundary) coming from the main trunk up to a height of approx 10 feet from ground level
