Adjacent To Field Gate (Opposite Wimbledon) Redland Drive Colwall Herefordshire

P223239/JWorks to trees covered by TPOApproved

Approved on 4 December 2022

Council decision: Trees covered by TPO – Consent Granted

Proposal

Tree T1: Lombardy Poplar - reduce in height by approximately 50% to a point 2 metres above woodpecker holes; retaining the holes as habitat but reducing the leverage and risk of stem failure. Reason - a climbing inspection was carried out. Test probing the woodpecker holes on the main stem at approximately 10 metres indicated significant decay at this point. Over 50% of stem diameter has been compromised and there is a risk of upper canopy failure during high winds.
