Proposal

Hawthorn Tree (T1) The trunk is about 400mm diameter. The tree is about 5 metres high. There are very few branches to the crown and many are dead. The tree is completely covered in Ivy. It is proposed that the tree is felled to allow space for a vegetable garden. The tree is at the rear of the property's garden and the removal will have little impact on the appearance of the conservation area. The garden contains many other trees including 20 fruit trees. It is proposed to plant a beech hedge with 10 new trees at the end of the drive, which will screen the new vegetable garden from the public highway.
