THE PROPOSAL

What is being proposed?

Pollard to a finished height of 9 metres of one Sweet Chestnut (wrongly identified as a Horse Chestnut in the application documents) the subject of Tree Preservation No 17 of 2009. Due to recent heavy winds and the weight (bearing chestnuts) two lower limbs have snapped out, leaving the tree out of balance with a quarter of the canopy missing and causing concern. Recommend: Pollard the tree to a finishing height of 9 metres approximately.
