Consent is requested for works to cut back the Magnolia tree marked on the plan. Prior to works (with permission) carried out to the Yew Tree which is subject to a TPO, this tree was forced to grow in a very lopsidded manner (see photos provided). This tree sits near the right hand side boundary fence with No 10 and has become rather large given its location. We with to cut it back by a maximun if 2.5m on the advice of the contractors we used to cut back the Yew Tree. This is to allow it to grow in a more balanced way and to remove over crowded branches. We expect this will help with the health and aeastghetic of this tree. Consent has previoulsy been obtained to cut back Magnolia trees located within the boundary of our other neighbours at no 6. We would emply suitable contractors to carry out this work at an appropriate time of the year.
