Proposal

COPPER BEECH - FAGUS SYLVATICA PURPEREA (TAG NO 49 ON ATTACHED MAP) WORKS RELTING TO THIS APPLICATION: Fell and Remove Entire Tree REASON: This tree was assessed by Atworth Arboricultural Limited (See Report Attached) who found that the tree had an extensive cavity at 8m with associated significant decay. Further, the heavy die back in the crown indicates that the roots are affected by decay. Given the above, it was considered by Atworth that the integral structure of the tree is compromised and that it should be removed as soon as practically possible, particularly as the residents are unable to use the garden with the unsafe tree. It is planned for several new trees to be planted including, but not limited to, Red Robins and Silver Birch. However, given the suspected root rot of the existing Copper Beech, any new trees will be planted in different locations within the Estate. This planting will be carried out by a professional company commencing early 2025.
