Description

T1 over-mature Monterey Pine growing at the back of the rear garden of 1 Manston Terrace, in close proximity to Barrack Road - Remove and replace with one English oak, Quercus robur in a location at greater distance from the house at No. 81.ReasonsThe trunk is 5m from the house at 81 Barrack Road and can be described as the wrong tree in the wrong place. The tree is considered to have outgrown its location, immediately adjacent to Barrack Road. It is growing over the top of 81 Barrack Road and is dominating the property. Neighbours at 81 and 79 have major concerns about the tree. Options for management of this tree are limited due to its age, form and species. This is an over-mature specimen of a fast growing species. Monterey pines in the UK are vulnerable to losing big branches in gales, according to Mitchell (1996, p.126). A replacement tree in more suitable location within the garden will provide a specimen that can be the right tree in the right place for the future, providing replacement amenity value in the mid-long term.See accompanying report and plan.
