Chevin House Queens Drive Belper Derbyshire DE56 2TJAwaiting decisionTree T1 (as identified in accompanying documents) is in the rear garden of the address. It is contributing to a range of issues/concerns, including pressure from neighbours due to leaf litter/detritus, ongoing maintenance issues such as low branches and detritus affecting the adjacent public highway as well as being implicated in a range of structural issues. While re-pollarding was considered, the complications involved in undertaking extensive structural repairs are exacerbated by the presence of the tree. As such, the preferred course of action is for tree T1 to be removed, including stump treatment/removal to inhibit regrowth. Replacement planting of species with lower water demand and slower growth habits is suggested. Species such as Rowan (Sorbus aucuparia) or Field Maple (Acer campestre) will provide visual amenity, wildlife benefits and are less likely to lead to conflicts with nearby structures in future. Suggested locations for replacement planting are within the rear garden of the property but removed from directly adjacent to the boundary retaining wall. As such, once grown, public visual amenity would be provided. To ensure some visual amenity is provided in the short-term, it is proposed that semi-standard sized tree is planted.TreesReceived 9 Jan 2026TRE/2026/0829
