  Application for works to trees in a Conservation Area - (T1) Sycamore Fell the tree to as near ground level as reasonably practicable. Process and chip the resulting timber and branches where appropriate, removing all arisings from site. Treat the remaining stump using an appropriate herbicide application, such as EcoPlugs, to prevent regrowth. Reason for works: The tree has outgrown its available growing space and is considered unsuitable for its location. Visible signs of decay are also present within the canopy, raising concerns regarding its long-term condition and structural integrity. Removal is therefore recommended to prevent further deterioration and reduce the risk of future branch or tree failure.

  Application for Works to Trees Subject to a Tree Preservation Order - BT376/T4 T4 Horse Chestnut - to reduce the tree by approximately 25%, climbed inspection and remove major dead wood. The main amount of reduction is to reduce the overhang to the adjacent buildings and public footpath. The tree is suppressed by x2 very large Lime trees, and it is heavily weighted and unbalanced towards the south aspect over the adjacent buildings and foot path. So, the -25% is on this side. Reasoning: There is a cavity at the base and potential basal decay. The crown is unbalanced and heavily weighted to the south. This will re-balance the tree and increase the safety of the tree.
