  Tree Preservation Order EL:10/07 - Tree: T15 Weeping Willow TPO: EL:10/07 Proposed Works: Remove and replant Pre-Application Ref: 2026/1688 This evidence supports our application to remove and replant T15, the mature Weeping Willow at 8 Beechwood Drive, following the site visit and pre-application advice from Russell Gibbons, Senior Tree Officer. Site Plan Plan attached showing T15 in relation to No.8, neighbouring properties, driveways, footpath and highway. Surface Roots / Damage Photographs show extensive surface roots, raised lawn areas and damage to surrounding surfaces. The roots protrude significantly above ground, making lawn maintenance difficult. Roots have also damaged the driveway at No.7, which has been repaired numerous times, but damage continues to recur. Further root expansion raises concern regarding future damage to the driveway, footpath and highway. Drains Photographs show works undertaken by the water company to repair a drain affected by tree-root intrusion. Outgrown Location The Willow was planted approximately 44 years ago. Photographs demonstrate its considerable size, spread and proximity to houses, footpath and highway. Photographs following previous pruning and current photographs demonstrate the degree and speed of regrowth. Its canopy extends towards/over the footpath and highway and requires regular intervention. Maintenance / Future Growth Substantial pruning is required approximately every 12-18 months at a cost of around 1,000 each time to maintain clearance. This only manages the canopy and cannot address the continuing root-related problems. If left unmanaged, accessibility problems and the potential for further damage would increase. Accessibility The tree and its roots affect access to neighbouring driveways. Of particular concern is No.7, where an elderly family member who uses a wheelchair lives. Root damage has repeatedly disturbed the driveway surface, making wheelchair access more difficult and creating uneven areas and a
