Proposal

As per the reasons in attached document 41631 We are pollarding all of the Lime trees as highlighted within our application and letter (attached) which states the tree numbers, species and work description. All the trees are currently, approximately 9 metres tall, being pollarded to the historic points of approximately 7 metres. They currently have a lateral spread of approximately 2-2.5 metres and due to the nature of pollarding works, this will be reduced to nothing.
