- PendingAT/2026/0284T1 - Oak Reason for works: T1 stands adjacent to a telecommunications pole in a restricted growing space and is overshadowed by larger neighbouring trees. Competition for light appears to have influenced its asymmetrical crown development. Branches extend towards and amongst the overhead BT telecommunications lines. Selective pruning is proposed to address this conflict and reduce the likelihood of further interference. Proposed works: Selectively shorten branches affecting the overhead BT telecommunications lines by approximately 1-1.5 metres, measured from the existing branch tips, pruning back to suitable lateral branches. Restrict pruning to the affected branches, retaining sufficient live foliage and preserving the tree's existing crown character as far as practicable. Undertake works in accordance with BS 3998:2010 Tree work - Recommendations.
- ApprovedAT/2026/02835 Day Notice Sycamore in G2 - Removal of decayed stem to 4m.
- PendingAT/2026/0274T1 - Lime - Reduce tree down to previous pollard points, leaving tree at approximately 6m high pollard.
