P20/S3639/TCAWorks to trees in CAApproved

Approved on 15 October 2020

Council decision: No obj CA works

Approximate location: the centre of the postcode, not the exact property.

Proposal

Works to help the development and the final build and landscape. 1x Lime (T1). Lift canopy to 4m targeting subbranches with wounds not exceeding 60mm. Reduce overall canopy by a maximum of 2.5m, in line with best practise. Works are requested by the client, not the arb surveyor. We have advised that any further more significant canopy reductions will be detrimental to the health of the tree, inducing panic growth and potential decay related issues. 1x Leylandii (H3). Fell to just above ground level. fairly unkempt hedge of no function, ready for future landscaping post build. 1x Hornbeam hedge (G1). please note this is a double linear hedge, wish to remove the one inner line to make more room for tree planting post build.
