  After visiting the site, I am recommending the following works as discussed with my client. x1 Willow - Pollard A large percentage of this tree over-hangs the owners boundary fence and partially blocks a public footpath with low hanging branches. It also encroaches into the neighbours garden opposite (which is separated by the path) with branches on their fencing. Due to its size and position, this tree casts a large shadow over the owners garden, blocking a lot of sunlight. The Willow appears to be healthy, but in need of a pollard to reduce its size and re-shape. x1 Walnut - Fell The majority of this tree over-hangs the owners adjacent neighbours property which blocks a lot of sunlight to both properties. The roots from this tree are also damaging the boundary dry stone wall which needs repairing, as well as some fencing. Owner also concerned the tree is drawing a large amount of water from the ground which effects the grassed areas of the garden. Conservation Area 4 Both trees planted by owner some 20 years ago No TPO's present

  27 Dormers Close Tetbury Gloucestershire GL8 8HJ

  T1 - Sycamore tree to be crown reduced and balanced. This tree is absolutely massive in comparison to the very small garden behind this property, and the garden has nothing growing in it at all as this tree now completely covers the whole garden. The branches are very nearly touching the house, there is significant dead wood in the centre of the crown and the tree is very misshapen. There was a large Ash tree growing next to it at number 28 that was removed due to Ash Dieback some years ago. This removal has left the Sycamore tree very two dimensional with most of the canopy over the garden of number 27. There is a very large lateral scaffold limb protruding from approximately one meter from the ground out of the side of the main trunk, that probably has nearly half of the canopy growing from it. Currently the tree has a height of approx. 12-14 meters, with a spread of approx. 7-8 meters north and east, approx. 6-7 meters south and approx. 2-3 meters west. Proposal is to reduce the height by approx. 4-5 meters, the spread by approx. 2-3 meters north and east, approx. 2-3 meters south and approx. 0.5 meters west to blend and balance the canopy. Also to remove the dead stem top in the centre.
