16 Riverside Winchcombe Cheltenham Gloucestershire GL54 5JP
Deodar Cedar (Cedrus Deodara): The tree is situated on an elevated triangle of land adjacent to and belonging to 16 Riverside but surrounded on all three sides by public footpaths.Permission is sought to reduce the primary southern scaffold limb overhanging neighbours' property by 3.5m, the eastern extension by 1.5m, the north-east by 1.5m, cutting back to strong green secondary growth.The tree is mature but vigorous, and has grown further since work was undertaken in early 2021 to lighten the canpoy by removing dead and diseased wood down to 20mm in diameter.The tree is unbalanced with much greater spread to the south, where it drastically overhangs the neighbouring property, 18 Riverside, and to the east than other sides. I estimate the spread now to be 15.5m south, 12m east, 11m west, 11.5m north-east.Planning permission granted (21/0027/TPO) on 4 March 2021 also allowed the reduction of the primary southern scaffold limb by 2m, but this was not carried out.
