Planning application
36, The Broadway, Sandhurst , GU47 9AB
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1 Silver Birch: Located on the left of the driveway entrance. Scope of Works The tree is becoming over-mature for its location and is currently restricting ingress/egress for the driveway. T1 is exhibiting signs of decline, with a significant portion of the upper crown dying back. Furthermore, the mid-crown has grown through the overhead utility services. Any significant reduction required to provide clearance for these services would render the tree unsustainable. Given this, combined with its current condition and location, I recommend the removal of the tree to near ground level.

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.

ASCOT PRIORY, PRIORY ROAD, ASCOT, SL5 8RT
Large dead Scott's Pine that our tree surgeon identified this week and you will see from the attached photos that were it to fall it could endanger pedestrians and vehicles on the Priory Road boundary of Ascot Priory. I therefore request a 5 Day Notice under our TPO 1219 to fell this as soon as possible.
