24/01249/TPOWork to tree with existing TPOApproved

Approved on 21 January 2025

Council decision: Consent (TREE)Delegated (officer decision)

Proposal

T01 Beech - Crown reduce in height to approximately 20m (a reduction of approximately 4m). Crown reduce in width by up to 4m. Tree has recently lost its second major structural limb after a bark included junction failed. I believe the remaining trunk is prone to failure and the proposed crown reduction will reduce loading effect.
