21/0662T The Copse, Chelford Road Section 211 notice:

I’ve previously applied to reduce the Trees Highlighted in yellow on the map provided back from a bowling green on behalf of the bowling green. since, the person who owns the trees has approached me and asked me to undertake full reductions on all of the trees, they have this done every 4 years as the trees are large specimens in close proximity to property. I’ve advised a 20 percent canopy reduction so that proper pruning methods can be applied. The customer in question has also requested that I prune back the neighbours Oak specimen to the boundary which I’ve highlighted in purple on the map provided. The customer has also requested that I relieve some weight from the large lateral scaffold limbs of an Oak that bridge the road opposite the entrance to there driveway. I’d just reduce the limbs by 1M to suitable pruning points to alleviate some stress. ive highlighted this oak on the map provided in Blue. In the stand of trees over the road from the property there are some dead standing stems and a holly which apparently already has permission for a reduction in line with some previous branch failure that occurred a while back, I thought that id mention my intentions to make these safe whilst undertaking the other works.
