24 Rectory Garth, Rayleigh, SS6 8BB
Proposal
I would like to reduce the size of a number of trees that are marked as protected (detailed below). The work intended is in line with what we had discussed when you visited the site.In summary, I wold like to reduce a number of thorn trees from their current unchecked and disordered state and to return them to more of a hedge format. When I cut the trees I would look to reduce to between 8-10 feet in height and where possible would partially cut and bend limbs towards the net tree in line. Where such a bend is not possible , I would like to train new growth to be toward the next tree in line.On your schedule / map covering the land behind 24, rectory Garth, towards Elm Drive I would like to reduce the following trees:T17T16T14T15T11T12I believe the work is simple to effect and would be doing it myself.Please let me know if this sounds appropriate; whether I need to apply in any formal way or if a site visit would help clarify.
