The Old Vicarage Church Lane Sawston CB22 3JR
Proposal
Fell the following trees: T1, T4, T5, T6 & T11 - Leylandii "hedging" (which encroaches on the usable space in the garden and in some cases blocks light from entering the plot and neighbouring plot). T2 & T3 Cypresses (trees as detailed in plans associated with Planning Permission S/2208/18/FL). T7, T8 & T9 Conifer trees (surrounding Spruce as they are affecting its growth). T10 Conifer tree (dead). T13, T14 & T15 Conifer trees (near driveway which are in poor condition due to ivy or overcrowding). T16 Conifer (adjacent to property to allow more light into the rooms at this end of the house, roots have also been found in the drainage system in this location). T12 Fir tree (in poor condition, this is also desired to allow for the planting of new fruit trees in this location).
