Summary

The proposal covers three trees at the Museum of Lincolnshire Life. Two trees could be cut back from the building by about two large strides. A third could have lower branches removed to give vehicles more room.

The museum is directly adjacent, and six protected old buildings are within about a 1-minute walk. The remains of the Roman city are a couple of minutes' walk away.

Most nearby buildings screen the site. Only one property frontage to the south has a direct view, though rear gardens or windows may still see the work.
