Proposal

SIDE (to Garlies Rd): ONE multi-stemmed Lime (T1)(ht.14m) FELL. Reason: multi-stemmed coppice regrowth from a historic stump, growing within 2m of building, section of the concrete slat boundary wall damaged since pre 2008. Replanting proposed: a native drought tolerant species will be planted in a more suitable location. Informative A: pre 2008 google streetview suggests there were 2x mature lime trees by the side boundary to Garlies Road, and T1 is regrowth from one of the stumps so the replacement rear garden tree is greatly appreciated to restore streetscape amenity, wildlife and shade to reduce high temperatures in increasingly hot summers due to the changing climate, suggest species such as: Honey locust (Gleditsia), field maple, whitebeam, crab apple, hawthorn, hazel, Robinia, Laburnum, Katsura (Cercidiphyllum japonicum), mulberry. Informative B: please create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity.
