Planning application
Tree T138 at the entrance to , Palm Hills Estate , London Road , Bracknell , RG12 9TN
Works: Trees
Withdrawn before a decision, so it carries no planning weight. A revised scheme can be submitted at any time.
Proposal
The tree is identified as T138 in the approved Arboricultural Impact Assessment and Tree Condition Survey produced by ‘Ruskins Tree Consultancy’ in April 2020 ref. 0420-8121 Rev1. The tree a cat C2 oak is shown in the photos contained in the ACD report and is located north of the electricity substation on the access to the residential development of Palm Hills. It is recommended that the tree is removed as soon as possible with sections of deadwood located above the footpath and in proximity to the road. A replacement semi mature tree is proposed in its place. The replacement tree is not proposed in the same location due to the potential of ‘sudden oak death’ affecting the new oak, so instead we have shown a replacement semi mature Lime in the same location.

1 SEYMOUR DRIVE, ASCOT, SL5 8FX
T1 - Norway Maple - Reduce canopy height and lateral spread 3-4m back towards previous reduction points. Cuts will be made back to suitable growth points from which point the tree can be maintained in a reduced pollarded form. Reason: T1 (Norway Maple) is a suppressed tree of poor form and with a stem defect. The overhanging canopy of T1 has a significant impact on the garden of 1 Seymour Drive and breaking branches cause a nuisance to residents. Works are recommended to reduce the canopy to alleviate the nuisance to residents from which point the tree can be managed in a reduced pollarded form. As the tree has no wider visual amenity value from a public viewpoint, the quality and canopy cover of trees within the Brackens Estate and wider Woodland Tree Preservation Order will not be undermined.
