Proposal

201/21/0368-T23 This large oak tree has several low hanging branches. I am requesting to raise the crown to less than 4M to the relevant British std. Work would be carried out by Eldon Tree surgery. My aim is to maintain the beauty of the tree and to thin the lower canopy. This tree is within my boundary but very close to the edge. This tree is shown accurately on your portals map. 201/21/0368-T22 This large oak has on large branch over hanging my property. I am requesting to remove some lower parts lower than 4M. This tree is just outside my boundary in a strip of woodland. This tree is shown incorrectly on your map. It is not inside the boundary of 4 Pounsett gardens, but 2 M west in the land owned by a local farm. Both trees are not affecting property
