Application Details
Description

x3 ash trees - which are approximately 8-10 metres tall and are approximately 6 metres from the wall of my house. I am proposing to reduce the height of the trees to below the gutter level of my house which is approximately 5 meters.Reasons:Having renewed my house insurance recently, some policies had penalties or higher premiums due to the height of the trees within close proximity to the house. I have lived in the house since 1989 and over time the trees have grown significantly. The height of the trees in such close proximity restrict the light to my house which means on the ground floor kitchen I often have to still use a light even in summer. Reducing the height of the trees will permit more light into my house. The garden it self has over time become more and more overshadowed by the trees. They impose shade for all but a few hours of the day. Also pollarding the trees will continue to keep them in good health.
