  Tree numbers as identified on plan T1 Pine - Fell - remove as the crown has little growth and provides little amenity value. It is also growing over the top of another smaller but healthier Pine which is now being restricted by the T1 Pine. There are also plans to extend the driveway for easier entrance, the new driveway will be extended over where the tree is currently situated. T2 - Fell - Pine is the smallest of the 5 and is growing directly into the crown of T3 and T4. It is also close to the garage and driveway so it makes sense to remove this one to prevent any congested growth and limit the damage to lawn and surrounding buildings. T3/T4/T5 - Reduce crowns by 1m, deadwood and lift to 6m

  T1 Oak - We would like to reduce the crown by 2-3 metres back to previous pruning points. The tree was last reduced approximately 5 years ago. This tree is on the river bank, adjacent to the location of a London Plane tree that failed last year. The resident is therefore concerned for the Oak tree and would like to reduce the weight of the crown to reduce the risk of any failure.

  1x Pine tree which is closest to the house to the right of the entrance gate we would like to be consider to have this tree removed to the stump as we are finding it hard to get insurance for our house as the tree is too close to the house and bending towards the property with minimal growth which looks to be dead/dying. Reduce height of 3x Pine trees by at least 3 feet off the top of the trunk remove any dead branches to reduce weight.

  T1 Weeping silver birch in the front garden -The trunk is approximately 2.5 metres from the front of the house and 2.5 metres from the front boundary. Proposed works: Selectively shorten branches on the house-facing side of the crown by up to 1 metre, pruning back to suitable lateral growth points, to increase clearance from the dwelling. Selectively shorten upper shoots growing towards the overhead telephone wires by up to 1 metre. No general crown-height reduction is proposed beyond this selective pruning. Lightly thin the remaining crown by up to 10%, concentrating on small, congested secondary branches and selectively removing crossing or rubbing branches. Retain an even distribution of foliage and the tree characteristic rounded, weeping form. Remove dead and damaged branches where present. No topping, pollarding or removal of major structural limbs is proposed. All pruning to follow BS 3998:2010 recommendations. Reasons: To reduce encroachment towards the house and overhead tele... read more
