10 College Road Bromsgrove Worcestershire B60 2NE
The cedar tree at the front of the property was defined under the 2020 TPO order as T5. In July 2023, planning permission was granted to 8 College Road to remove roots which were damaging their driveway. This work was carried out in March 2024 in line with the permission granted. A tree survey was undertaken by Reuben Hayes (Apex Environmental Ltd) following this to provide reassurance and advice over the safety and health of the trees on this property. Please note the T5 tree is defined as T1 in the tree survey report (a plan of the trees assessed under the report is provided in this application for reference). The recommendation of the report is that due to the size and amount of the tree roots removed, "the stability of the tree has been significantly impaired" and "due to these works the [tree's] stability cannot [be] guaranteed and as such the tree must be removed."This application therefore requests permission to remove the tree based on the findings of the tree survey.
