Proposal

We are applying to remove a medium sized old apple tree which is growing very close to the boundary of the property and is destroying the fence, especially at the ground/root level as well as at the canopy level. The fence is in a very bad way and needs complete replacing and the tree is obstructing this. It has also become too large/spread for our narrow garden and is becoming hard to manage and casting a lot of shade given the canopy is very low.
