Proposal

Willow-leaved pear (Pyrus salicifolia) ? Tree T1 on the attached sketch plan. Proposed works: Fell the tree and remove from site. Reason for works: The tree is a willow-leaved pear of approximately 2.5 metres in height located within the rear garden. It is in poor condition, with areas of rot/decay present, and is leaning significantly at approximately 50 degrees, giving rise to concern over its structural stability and likelihood of failure. The tree is not visible from any public vantage point and can only be seen from within the private rear garden, so its contribution to the character or appearance of the conservation area is very limited. Given its poor condition, pronounced lean and limited public amenity value, consent is sought to fell the tree in the interests of safety and good arboricultural management.
