  Proposed work: tree #2 on the sketch provided: Pine tree located adjacent to my property's south boundary - Fell (See below for further guidance from expert) tree #1 on the sketch provided: Sweet Chetsnut - Pruning following further guidance from expert (See below) Expert Report: Following up from yesterday’s site assessment regarding the location of the replacement Scots Pine, conditioned in respect of the removal of T1 Pine of tree work application 25/00207/TRTPO, the attached plan indicates the 2 most appropriate locations for the new tree. Given the maturity of the adjacent residual trees that comprise ‘woodland’ designation W2, spanning the rear of your property, it is important to ensure the new tree is, as far as is possible, planted under a gap in the above canopy. It light of what I witnessed the most foreseeably ideal location would be to plant the Pine to the north side of your property. With regard the consideration of the additional Pine located adjacent to your property’s south boundary (#2 on the sketch) , mentioned in Sarah’s delegated report, copy attached for convenience, its condition is clearly struggling, and the removal of the moribund branch would foreseeably lead to further physiological and structural stress for this tree. On this basis, and to avoid any onerous burden, its removal would be acceptable if a fresh application were to be submitted. Whilst T3 Sweet chestnut’s work proposal, in accordance with 25/00207/TRTPO, was refused, there is scope to carry out peripheral reduction on the East side of its crown, only. The crown extends circa 14m East, the outer approximate 2/3m of has suitable pruning points that would withstand shortening of no more than 1.5m, be consistent with current arboricultural standards and would proportionately adjust T3’s form due to the consented pending removal of T1 Pine.

  15 ABINGDON ROAD, SANDHURST, GU47 9RN

  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.
