The application: T1 - A large Weeping Ash (Fraxinus Excelsior 'Pendula') which has perished, located in the center of the garden. The ash threatens a neighboring Hazel T2 (Corylus Avellana) and is dropping substantial dead wood in strong winds. Many of the branches were also victim to squirrel damage prior to the tree dying. The owner of the tree is concerned with the instability and unpredictability of its now dead extremities especially due to the tree's central position in the garden. I have advised to monolith, rather than fell, as after inspection I didn't notice any rot or decay around the base, nor anything else that may compromise the integrity of the lower trunk; safe to monolith for habitat.

T1 & T4 Removal T2 & T3 Crown Reduction (4m) T1,T2,T3,T4 Acer Pseudoplatanus. Please see sketch plan attached. Reason for Removal The trees proposed for removal have been assessed in accordance with BS 5837:2012. They exhibit canopy dominance that results in significant overshadowing of adjacent trees, restricting light and growing space and leading to suppression of the neighbouring specimens. This is contrary to good arboricultural practice, which requires that retained trees have adequate room to develop a balanced, sustainable crown. Selective removal will reduce competition, improve light availability, and support the long-term health and viability of the remaining tree group in line with BS 5837 guidance on future growth potential and group management.

There are 6 trees which i believe are sycamores that align the fence in my neighbours garden, they are very overgrown and have not been cut back for over about 5 years and neighbours who used to previously cut back refuse to do so. They cover majority of my back garden so will need trimming back up to 3m ideally so i can get some light in the back of my garden during summer.
