15 ABINGDON ROAD, SANDHURST, GU47 9RN
86% historically approved · decision due ~3 Nov
Common Beech Tree in rear Garden of 15 Abingdon Rd- Work recommended - Selectively tip-reduce the lateral branches overhanging 1 Cookham Close to ensure maximum clearance (both vertical and horizontal) of 2.5m. REASON: to maintain adequate clearance between the tree and the surrounding infrastructure so that damage to roof tiles, guttering, flat roof etc.. is avoided. 5.2 Crown lift all around to ensure a maximum height clearance of 4m above ground level, by removing small and secondary branches only, resulting in final pruning cuts of no greater than 35mm diameter. REASON: to reduce the overall dominating effect of the tree; maintain adequate clearance from surrounding outbuildings, fences, gazebos etc; enable free unobstructed movement and enjoyment of the surrounding gardens; and to create a sense of more space and allow some additional sunlight to reach the gardens below so that some grass and other plants have half a chance of survival. 5.3 Crown thin by no more than 10%, with final pruning cuts of no greater than 50mm diameter. REASON: to allow some dappled light to filter through the canopy to the rear of the houses and gardens below, again allowing reasonable enjoyment of the dwellings, and enabling grass and other garden plants half a chance of surviving under the tree’s canopy.

WOODPECKERS, 79 PINEHILL ROAD, CROWTHORNE, RG45 7JP
Pine (T1) – Front boundary of 79 Pinehill Road: - Reduce lowest branch on northern side by approximately 3 metres to alleviate branch end weight and leverage and give good clearance to property. - Reduce lateral branch originating at approximately 10 metres from ground level on northern side by approximately 2 metres to alleviate branch end weight and leverage - Remove broken branch within upper crown on northern side - Carry out reduction work to remaining lateral branches on northern side as required to shape and balance in line with reduction works to lower lateral branches - Reduce over extended lateral branch on southern side over highway by approximately 5 metres to alleviate branch end weight and leverage Remove all deadwood from entire crown area Reason for application: Proposed reduction works are being advised to mitigate potential failure associated with V-shaped unions exhibiting significant included bark. The presence of reactive growth (commonly referred to as 'elephant’s ears') indicates that the tree is actively attempting to compensate for structural stress Pine (T2) – Front boundary of 79 Pinehill Road: - Front garden, front boundary - Remove all deadwood from entire crown area

STILWELL, FOREST ROAD, ASCOT, SL5 8QF
T1 Turkey Oak Supply tree surgery services, machinery, equipment, and suitably qualified personnel to undertake the sectional felling of the Oak tree. The tree has a large area of decay at the base of the main stem, extending approximately 12 inches into the stem. Due to the extent of the decay and the associated structural concerns, sectional felling is recommended to safely remove the tree.
