Pruning and deadwood removal proposed for oak and cedar trees
The Manor By The Lake Cheltenham Film Studios Hatherley Lane Cheltenham Gloucestershire GL51 6PN
Maintenance pruning of two trees in hotel grounds
- Status
- pending
- Type
- tree
Summary
The application proposes pruning and maintenance works on two trees in the grounds of The Manor by the Lake. An oak tree would have dead branches removed and lower branches trimmed back, with the crown rebalanced on the garden-facing side. A cedar tree would have one lower branch removed, another trimmed back by about two metres, dead wood cleared, and the crown lifted on the side nearest the building. The site sits within a busy part of west Cheltenham. Nuffield Health Cheltenham Hospital is a few minutes' walk away, and Benhall Infant School and St Mark's Church of England Junior School are also close by. A busy road, the A40, runs nearby carrying around 58,000 vehicles each day. The works are maintenance in nature. No trees are proposed for full removal, and the changes would be to branches rather than whole trees.
