    14 Mayfield Road Hersham Walton-On-Thames Surrey KT12 5PL

    Tree Preservation Order EL:183 - T1 Oak (Quercus robur) approximately 16m in height with a crown spread of 13m. Remove epicormic growth from the stem and scaffold branches up to the first major union at approximately 6m above ground level. Selectively reduce the northern crown sector over the dwelling by up to 1.5m and undertake a crown lift to approximately 6m above ground level. Reduce the lowest south western secondary limb by up to 2m. Reduce the associated primary limb extending over the road by up to 5m, or back to the nearest suitable growth point, to reduce end weight and improve branch structure. Selectively reduce the north western crown sector by up to 1.5m to maintain a balanced crown form. T2 Oak (Quercus robur) approximately 17m in height with a crown spread of 9m. Remove epicormic growth from the stem up to the crown break. Undertake a crown lift to approximately 6m above ground level to match the clearance of T1. Reduce the limb containing the cavity back to a suitable growth point, or remove the limb if inspection confirms that the extent of decay compromises structural stability. Where structurally appropriate, retain the limb in a reduced form to preserve its habitat value. Selectively reduce the lowest north eastern limbs over the dwelling by up to 2m. All pruning works to be undertaken in accordance with BS3998:2010.
