Description

Remove conifer - Abies/Picea species because it is touching a listed structure and starting to cause damage. The tree is also close to a driveway that is being returned to its original level with the original drainage being reinstated. The root system, which will cause damage to the existing structure in the long-term, will be left exposed and possibly comprised by the works.The nearby multi-stemmed Beech tree also requires work as it is touching the structure at the other end. This has previously been inspected and recommended to have the touching limb removed to ground level. The works would require two limbs removing to ground level and a further limb pruned to balance the tree. The structure they are touching is a stone pergola type structure with a stone tiled roof and includes a section where cars pass through a gap/archway. This is on the land belonging to the Mounton House Residents - Communal area at the far-western end of the main driveway.It makes sense to carry out both works at the same time - cost-effective and using platform equipment to minimise day-to-day disturbance of residents.There is no individual TPO's on them as far as I understand but they are within the Mounton Conservation area - possibly both in A2
