1 Millgarth Court Collingham Wetherby LS22 5JZ

1. 1.There is a lack of compelling evidence to support the works proposed in this application. The pruning is considered excessive and likely to be detrimental to the tree's physiological and structural condition by removing a significant portion of the crown on the southwest aspect. thus exposing the remaining primary structure to the full force of extreme weather from the prevailing side and impeding photosynthesis through the loss of leaf bearing material. This is liable to increase the chance of future branch failures. A more considered proposal may be supported in a future application.
