Proposal
T1 Silver Birch - Canopy should be sympathetically raised by up to 3 metres 50cm because of damage to roof caused by lower overhanging branches which are touching both the roof and gutter and almost touching the satellite dish on the roof of the property next door. A secondary factor is excessive shading to 18 Elmete Grove.. The Silver Birch has a Leylandii behind it which provides privacy already from adjoining houses and so there should be no loss of visual amenity.
