Proposal
T1 TPO Beech: remove one branch which is correctly fouling the telephone lines to several properties in Church Street. Concerns raised by adjacent resident. Branch to be pruned back to main stem of tree. Pear tree within garden terrace below house: fell tree which has been poor ly crown reduced in past and has not recovered well, producing a lopsided crown. Fruit production is limited to scarce small fruit. The tree has very little =amenity value. A replacement tree will be planted which is in keeping with the garden to provide a better amenity in the future. Replacement with a fruit bearing tree is unlikely as there are several apple trees within the vegetable garden on the terrace below.
