  Silver Birch Tree T1. A mature tree, forked into two main stems of equal size at ground level. Height approx 15m, crown width 8m. Signs of past tree work include trimming and deadwood removal. Leaf cover is good however the crown is uneven. There does not appear to be any decay to the stems or near ground level where the tree forks. Tree Work proposal. Reduce the height of the crown by 5m and reshape the remaining crown to give a balanced tree. Reasons The tree has two target areas that are close to the tree. The adjoining property buildings are under the crown cover to one side and the other building is within 5m of the crown. There is a possibility that where the tree is forked the two main stems would fall on either one of the buildings. The work would be to reduce the risk of the tree collapsing and therefore prolong its useful life expectancy. Leylandii T2 A semi mature tree that is multi stemmed. Height 12m, crown spread 4m Past tree works include raising the crown over the garden. Tree Work Proposal Remove lower limb Reasons Allow more light into the property as this is only a small garden and there are 4 large trees within the boundary.

  I would like permission to cut back some of the branches, including the top of the tree. The beech tree is becoming extremely large with branches over-reaching to my neighbours and we are receiving complaints about beech nuts and branches falling onto neighbouring property. I have always had concerns about the tree falling and so would like to keep the height trimmed so that it doesn't reach the property, should it fall.
