T1 beech - Remove basal and epicormic growth to prevent contact with fence and summerhouse. T2 beech - Side reduction on north and south sides by approx. 3-4m to suitable growth points in the interests of safety due to additional exposure following removal of T3. T3 beech - Fell to ground level in the interests of safety.

(NMA to 25/01153/HOU) The first non material amendment we would like to make is raising the roof height of the extension. This would require Removing existing bedroom window and replacing it with a smaller one to accommodate the roof raise. We would also like to add a roof light to the left hand side of the extension.

Fell 1 x self-sown, early-mature Beech (Fagus sylvatica) located towards the south of Nos. 18 and 19 Holly Meadows. Reasons for works: The tree is not part of any planting scheme, it sits incidentally within a historic avenue of veteran lime trees. It is not in keeping with the avenue and detracts from its visual amenity and the historic character of the designed landscape. It also casts shade and competes for light, moisture and nutrients with the veteran lime trees, and its continued growth will progressively suppress their crowns. Removal is recommended to release the veteran limes from competition, in line with recognised veteran tree management practice. Removing it at this stage, before it reaches full maturity, minimises loss of amenity and limits disturbance to the limes? roots compared with felling a larger tree in future. The canopy gap will be left to natural regeneration from the suppressed trees nearby.
