30 Powers Hall End Witham Essex CM8 2HE
Description
Notice of intent to carry out works to trees protected by Tree Preservation Order TPO - 7a/80 T1 - Beech - Sectional dismantle to leave a standing stem at approximately 3-4m from ground level for habitat purposes. It has numerous fungal fruiting bodies located on its stem and branch frame work, indicating compromise to structural integrity. As the tree is in close proximity to the adjacent main road, it poses a safety concern for the public. The tree has previously dropped a significant sized limb due to internal decay. T2 - Horse chestnut - Sectional dismantle to leave a high stump at approximately 1.5-2.5m from ground level for habitat purposes. Appears to be almost completely dead. Located next to the overhead power line and road, dismantling the stem to a high stump would prevent future risk of failure while still retaining valuable habitat.
