Application Details
Description
Mature horse chestnut (conker) tree, 400cm trunk circumference at 1m height so between 150 to 200 years old. Canopy is 5m to 25m tall with a spread of 10m in diameter. The tree has had it's canopy reduced previously and one tree surgeon has informed me that it would be difficult to so again down to the age of the tree and the severity of the cuts required - he said it's likely that the tree wouldn't survive. Another tree surgeon said the severity of the cuts would not leave a pleasant looking tree if it did survive. So my conclusion is that the tree is just too big for where it is. It actually gives a negative amenity by being too over bearing in such a confined space. I propose that it's removed completely.
