Consultation reference: 003
Start date: Monday 20 October 2025
End date: Tuesday 18 November 2025
Location: Frobisher, Bracknell
Number of trees: 1
Tree species: silver birch
Reason for removal
This tree has been identified as the cause or a significant contributing factor in subsidence damage to 5 Frobisher.
This constitutes a legal nuisance which, unless appropriate action is taken, will result in the council liable to pay considerable damages that far exceed the value of the trees.
We have considered other solutions, including:
- pruning
- root barriers
- underpinning
However, on balance, these solutions are not reasonably practical or affordable in this case.
Proposed replacement planting
Our proposed replacement tree includes:
- 1 Field Maple, located in the verge, situated in the largest portion of greenspace
