Court Lane, 25

Proposal:

Species and Location of Trees

T1.          A Mulberry tree approximately 5m in height, situated in the centre of the rear garden. The tree is very dense and badly shaped.

T2.          A twin stemmed Ash tree approximately 15m in height, situated in a central location on the bottom boundary of the rear garden.  The tree is very close to a recently built Garden Studio and is a little dense and wide spreading.

Description of Approved Works

T1.          Remove and the roots grubbed out.

T2.          Crown thin by 20% including the removal of any dead wood and necessary re-shaping.  The height and basic shape should be retained.  It is important to prune branches at convenient growth points, rather than an all-round reduction or pollarding which is not permitted.

Details of Replacement Required

As a condition of the removal of (T1) above, a replacement tree is to be planted in a convenient location of the front garden and below are the three alternative species for consideration:

Amelanchier lamarckii (Snowy Mespilus)
Acer griseum (Paperbark Maple)
Arbutus unedo (Strawberry tree)

The tree should be planted during the November 2021 and March 2022 planting season with a stem girth of between 14-16cm at 1m above ground level and at a minimum height of 3m.

Status:

Approved
