Works: Trees
Part of this application was approved and part refused. The decision notice on the council portal sets out which is which.
Proposal
T1, Oak : reducing portion of canopy overhanging 63 Wychall Park only, reducing limbs back by up to approximately 2000mm with cut diameters up to 50mm. Reduction will be faded out at boundary line and also into un-reduced top of canopy to retain a natural look, so as there is not a distinct line between reduced and not reduced portions of the canopy.

T2, Oak : Suggested works: Reduce southern canopy by 3 metres with a maximum diameter of cuts (MDC) of 75mm. Reduce northern canopy by 2 metres, MDC 50mm. Rationale: To limit forces exerted on decayed lower stem (see photos provided) and hopefully preserve the tree for a longer time to come. T5, Hawthorn : Suggested works: Fell to near ground level Rationale: Tree is heavily leaning with poor crown density and limited amenity value. Past partial structural failure. See photos. T7, Oak : Suggested works: Reduce decayed lowest extending secondary easterly limb by 4 metres, MDC 100mm. Rationale: Branch exhibits decay and should be removed for safety (see photos).
