  1no. Oak (T204) - Fell. Exhibiting symptoms of decline, including low overall vigour and reduced canopy density. Decay at the base of the tree is of concern, as it could compromise the tree’s ability to safely support its own weight. Its proximity to residential properties and footpath and risk of structural failure is increasing. Retention of the tree would pose an ongoing safety risk that cannot be effectively mitigated through pruning or management. Felling is proposed for public safety and risk management. To ensure ecological value is retained, the stem will be reduced and retained at a height of approx. 3m to provide standing deadwood habitat, and the main stem will be left within the adjacent woodland to allow for natural decay and biodiversity benefit. No replant is proposed due to the natural regeneration of the woodland.

  3no. Oak (T2, T3 & T5, originating from beyond rear boundary of No. 64 & 62) - Fell & treat stumps with eco-plugs. Works proposed as remedy to the differential foundation movement at No. 64 & ensure long-term stability of building. To limit extent & need for engineering repair works. An alternative to felling, pruning/pollarding would not provide a reliable or sustainable remedy to the subsidence. Other potential means of mitigation, including root barriers, would not be effective or appropriate. There is scope for replanting of native species more suitable for this site. Both No.64 and 62 are experiencing issues caused by the Oak trees, removal will benefit two properties.

  1no. Oak (T1, originates from HETC land) - Trim 3.5m overhang into garden back to fence line. To prevent falling in bad weather. Branches all overhang the garden with no counter balancing branches on any other side. 2no. Alder (T2 & T3, originates from HETC land) - Trim overhang into garden back to fence line. Trim T2 & T3 overhang over T1 in order to give it more light & encourage a more balanced vertical growth. Pruning to fence line will re-balance trees, help create a natural screen & reduce risk of failure.

  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.
