    1no. Beech (T1) - Crown reduction by up to 3m from branch tips throughout the crown, maintaining natural shape and balanced form. Removal of dead, diseased, damaged and crossing branches where appropriate. 1no. Oak (T2) - Crown reduction by up to 3.5m from branch tips throughout the crown, with particular attention to reducing the lateral spread towards property while maintaining the tree’s natural shape and balanced form. Removal of dead, diseased, damaged and crossing branches where appropriate. T1 & T2 have reached maturity and now have extensive crowns, measuring approx. 18m and 16m in spread respectively. The size and density of the canopies result in significant overshadowing of the rear garden and rear elevation of the property, substantially reducing natural daylight and limiting the reasonable enjoyment and use of the garden. T2 is situated approx. 4m from the rear elevation of the property and, because of its proximity, has a greater impact on daylight reaching both the house and the immediate garden area. A slightly greater crown reduction is requested to improve light penetration while retaining its natural form, health and amenity value. The proposed works represent sympathetic management of two mature trees and are intended to maintain them as healthy, structurally sound specimens in accordance with BS3998:2010.

    1no. Silver Birch (T1) - Fell to ground level due to poor physiological state of the tree which has been occurring over the last four years. There is no reasonable reduction of the crown possible that would prolong the life of the tree as tree is unlikely to respond well to pruning. Replant with another Birch.

Oak (T1, originating from no. 24 Thornbury Wood, SO53 5DQ) - Reduce lateral limbs extending over garden and towards property by approx. 2.5m to even up the tree and provide a natural and balanced shape. Majority of branches are to the Southeast side of tree. Pruning will be carried out back to natural growth points to improve light levels within garden and minimise overhang towards house, while preserving the tree's overall form and health.
