Proposal

T1 Horse Chestnut - Crown reduce full circumference by 2m. the tree is sadly declining but we want to preserve it as it has a high amenity value T2 Ash - Fell/remove. the tree has signs of ash dieback and is very thin in the canopy T3 Poplar - Fell/remove. The tree has signs of rot in the base and has low amenity value. Would like to plant several trees moving forward with a planting scheme.
