Land West Of 16 Velwell Road Exeter EX4 4LE
Removal of dying cherry-plum tree, leaving the stump in the ground to rot naturally. The tree is approximately 5m tall with a trunk circumference of 90cm (diameter approx 29cm).The tree has produced very little leaf, blossom or fruit for the last two years, and most of the branches are completely dead. I consulted an arborist, who advised that the tree has reached its natural end of life and should be removed. Please see attached photographs, which were taken on 23/4/2025.The tree is on the garden area opposite 16 Velwell Road, close to the garage. It is marked T1 on the attached sketch plan.The garden contains a number of other fruit trees, and is close to (and crowding) a mature apple tree in the neighbouring garden. For these reasons, I do not intend to replace the plum tree.
