Eucalyptus Removal - Verney Cottage This is a request to fully remove the Eucalyptus tree in the garden of Verney Cottage, East Street, PO7 4RX.In June this same tree was pollarded (with permission), but it is now clear that the tree needs to be removed completely. In retrospect I should have applied to fully remove the tree first time round. Reason 1 : Tree roots have grown under the flint wall and the shed of the adjacent property and has the potential to undermine foundations. Note the flint wall and shed are Grade II listed. Reason 2 : The tree interferes with an in-progress planning application [SDNP/25/02783/LIS], with the tree in the same location needed for foundations for the verandah post. Reason 3 : The tree is in quite poor condition, having had lots of ivy growing around it for many years. See photos. Given this is a request to fully remove the tree (for reasons above, particularly first two) it is not considered relevant to get an arboricultural report done.
