| 24/1440T | 194 Grove Park | Works to TPO:
At the rear of the property all the trees have a TPO applied in Grove Park. The tree in question is a self seeding tree that has grown prior to us buying the property. The tree has grown through the fence, photograph provided and the fence has been damaged in high winds and needs to be replaced. It is currently being held up by a base of a trampoline. Obviously, this can’t be a long term solution. The fence provides security between the A50 and our property and needs to be replaced. To do this work we need to remove the tree. |
