6 Abbotsford Drive, Nottingham, NG3 4PN

Tree A - Lime tree Species: Lime. Location: Neighbouring property, adjacent to your white-rendered house. Proposed work: Selective removal of branches overhanging your property, back to appropriate pruning points at or close to the boundary. Reason: Excessive overhanging growth, loss of natural light, proximity to the house and concerns about potential property damage. Tree B - Cedar tree Species: Cedar. Location: Adjacent to your property, with branches extending over your driveway and adjoining road. Proposed work: Selective lateral crown reduction on the property-facing side, reducing branches extending over the driveway and, where appropriate, the adjoining road. Selective thinning only where recommended by the arborist. Reason: Excessive canopy spread, significant bird roosting activity, accumulation of bird droppings, hygiene concerns and loss of enjoyment of the driveway as a family recreational space.

T1 & T2 (Leylandii): Complete removal (fell to ground level). The trees have outgrown their situation and have limited amenity value to the wider conservation area. T3 (Yew Tree): Crown reduction to bring the individual tree down into conformity with the active height and profile of the adjacent yew hedge (approximately [insert target height here, e.g., 2.5 metres] above ground level). Work will entail pruning back to suitable growth points to maintain a neat, managed hedge line.

The application seeks a Lawful Development Certificate for the implementation of planning permission 21/02442/PFUL3.
