    Tree Preservation Order EL:91/02 - TG2 - Common Lime - Crown reduction by up to 1 metres in height and spread - reason for work: The proposed crown reduction of the 2 Common lime by up to 1 metre in height and spread is intended to maintain the tree at or close to its current dimensions, ensuring it remains appropriate for the location in which it is situated. The works will help manage future growth while retaining a balanced and aesthetically pleasing crown, with only a limited impact on the tree's health and amenity value. All pruning works will be carried out in accordance with BS3998:2010 - Tree Work Recommendations, with pruning wounds kept to a minimum and not exceeding approximately 30mm in diameter.

    East Molesey Kent Town Conservation Area - TG1 - Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) - 2 trees both the same location on map and work specification Two Sycamore trees (Acer pseudoplatanus) Proposed works (description) Crown reduction of both Sycamore trees by an average of approximately 1.5 metres, with over-extended limbs reduced by up to 2 metres. Works to be carried out evenly and selectively throughout the crowns to maintain their current overall size and to leave a natural, flowing, and aesthetically pleasing crown form. Maximum pruning wound diameter not to exceed 50mm. Reason for works The proposed crown reduction is intended to maintain the trees at or close to their current crown dimensions and to prevent further increase in size due to the trees being in very close proximity to the building at the rear of the property. The trees have been heavily reduced in the past, and continued cyclical crown management is considered appropriate to control regrowth, maintain structural balance, and reduce the need for more severe works in the future. All works will be undertaken in accordance with BS3998:2010 - Tree Work Recommendations, with the aim of retaining the trees while having only a limited impact on their health, amenity value, and long-term condition.

    20 Albany Close Esher Surrey KT10 9JR

    Tree Preservation Order EL:89/15 - T1 - Oak - reduce overall by 3m and raise canopy up to 5m by removing secondary branches to leave a finished height of 15m and a finished spread of 9m. The Oak has developed into a large tree for its present location within a relatively confined rear residential garden, with the crown extending in close proximity to the boundary with the neighbouring property. The proposed works are intended to manage the tree's overall size and crown dimensions in relation to its setting, while retaining its contribution to the local amenity. The proposed work will maintain the tree at a more appropriate scale for its location and will provide greater clearance from the neighbouring property and improve the relationship between the tree and the surrounding residential garden environment. The works are intended as a proportionate management measure rather than removal of the tree, allowing the oak to be retained while reducing its current size and encroachment within a confined residential setting.

    Tree Preservation Order EL:94/18 - T1- Oak tree- The reduction of the entire tree by 3m to reduce the risk of over loaded branches breaking out in high winds. Branches have been breaking out from this tree and the homeowner worries that about ranch will eventually hit the house. Current height 18m, resulting height will be 15m. Width currently 16m, resulting width 10m. Removal of all dead and dangerous branches. T2- Beech tree- Fell- Removal of this tree down to ground level to ease the congestion in the area and allow light through to the area below.

T3- Large Oak tree- Reduce the entire crown of this tree by up to 3 metres. This tree is far too large being so close to the neighbours building and drops lots of debris into the gardens below making the children's play area unusable at times.

Width currently 16m, resulting width 10m. T4- Sweet chestnut tree- This tree creates a lot of debris through out the year and creates a lot of shade over the lawn and plants.
