Excuse my ignorance- Why would I be on stronger grounds if it was below 2m?

I'm sorry to say that I think that in this case the use of a TPO to resist the loss of this hedge was within the competence of the Council. May I ask as to why- everything I have read seems to imply that a hedge can not or shoul;d not have a TPO? From an arb perspective why are these trees so valued? We would bee looking to remove them and plant some other trees and plants.

Please find attached photos. Prior to the lower foliage being removed, looked far more like a hedge as you could not see the stems. In my non arb opinion and purely from aesthetics i think they look awful......

Our planning application and appeal were both refused on another point so we are no longer looking to go ahead with the front extension. We are now looking at this purely from a matter of aesthetics and safety and would really like to remove the hedge. I shall get some photos posted later. Many thanks for all input so far.

I believe that you are correct regarding the trees being trimmed to a bush. Does that help or hinder? I shall try and upload a photo tomorrow. Many thanks for all your responses.

Hello everyone. Hoping for some advice. The front of my property is lined with yew trees (hedge)with tpo's. we had the tree officer round as we wished to remove them. We were told in no uncertain terms that under no circumstances would this be approved. We applied to have 2 stems removed and the lower foilage removed so as to increase security(no one could hide and jump out from behind hedge) This was approved and the works carried out. A few months later we applied for a front extension which was refused as we had not included a tree report. We went to appeal and used their arb company who advised that as the council had agreed to us lowering foliage(hedge only)-EXACT WORDS AND BRACKETS USED-that the council agreed it was a hedge and therefore could not have a tpo therefore we can remove the hedge if we so wish Does this sound correct to you? Hope this makes sense. If you require any further info please ask. Many thanks
