Planning history at 7 The Hollow is exclusively tree-management applications — typical for a property with mature trees on or near the plot.
1. The laburnum is an old and overgrown tree with considerable amount of dead wood. The area around it is also very overgrown. It is proposed to remove the tree and clear the area around which is very close to the house. 2. The ash tree has been assessed by a tree surgeon and is considered potentially dangerous because of its size and location at the top of the bank leading down to the public road. It also has a large branch growing out at a sharp angle. It is proposed to remove the tree entirely. 3. The two sycamores are growing very close together the removal of one, along with the removal of the ash tree would allow the remaining sycamore to grow into the space created by the removal of the other two trees.
7 The Hollow has more than doubled in price since the earliest registered sale in 2001.
