F.O.I REQUESTS

Elm tree along Western Way

16/1/2021

Case reference: FS-Case-290206579
Date submitted: 01/01/2021
Request: May I please know as much information about the following tree. It is a large elm tree along Western Way. I am considering requesting a TPO on this tree due to its species and amenity value - which is why I need to know any hisotrical planting records. The location is here:

https://what3words.com/slower.bigger.clown

https://www.google.com/maps/@50.7276165,-3.520391,3a,60y,115.03h,102.67t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1svY_Jd7yo7nFtlvITbj5g0w!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

As this tree was planted by human design - there should be records of it's plantining. Ideally I need to know:

1) When it was planted  The Council does not hold a record of the planting date.
2) Who planted - assume it was the Exeter City Council  I have contacted the Council’s Tree Manager and he can only assume that it was planted by Exeter City Council as it is on Exeter City Council land, however, I cannot confirm this as no record is held. 
3) The cultivar / variety  Owing to the lack of historic records, the Council does not hold a record of the specific variety of elm.  However, the Council’s Tree Manager suspects it is one of the Dutch elm disease resistant cultivars. 

Due to the nature of Elms there are many hybrids - but it is very important to know the correct cultivar / variety to see what level of resistence it has to DED (Dutch Elm Disease)

We have so few mature Elm trees in Exeter - we need to know as much information as possible as well as protecting them.

Many thanks,

Terrence Pickles of Exeter Trees UK
