Description

We would like to fell 6 trees in the Copse behind our house in Laverstoke Lane. A Number of these are Ash tress which we've been advised by a tree surgeon have Ash die back. They are therefore dangerous and in windy conditions we often have large branches coming down. The remaining 2 trees to be felled are to allow a uniform look along that side of the garden/wood and also to prevent future problems with potential falling of these trees. Their branches are very close to power lines and we have had to have them cut back several times . The trees to be felled are at the edge of the copse near to the garden bit within the main body of the wood itself. We will still have a large area of woodland left in the Copse, more so than many of the neighbouring areas where many trees have been felled over the years. We will not be replanting any new trees due to the significant number we already have and that the wood would indeed benefit from some reduction in tree number to allow other trees to thrive better due to better light and space etc.We would also like permission to fell subsequent Ash trees with Ash die back in due course as part of conservation of the wood- I'm not sure if this requires additional applications?
