Cobham The Tilt Conservation Area - The tree is identified as tree 1 in the attached diagram. I do not know its species but it's tropical / sub-tropical. The tree is dead. It did not survive the 2024/25 winter. It is deteriorating, bark is peeling off and branches are starting to fall. I wish to fell the tree and dig out the remaining stump. I intend to replace it with a magnolia in approximately the same location.

Lion Cottage 37 Tilt Road Cobham Surrey KT11 3EZ
Cobham The Tilt Conservation Area - Per the tree locations and numbering in the sketch provided, a description of the tree and the work I wish to carry out is as follows: Tree 1: This tree has died, it is a non-native tropical/sub-tropical tree (I do not know the precise type) and did not survive the 2024/25 winter. It is now deteriorating rapidly; bark is peeling off and branches are falling. The intended work is to fell the tree and dig out the remaining stump. I intend to plant a Magnolia in the approximate location. Please note, this tree is owned by me. Tree 2: I do not know the type of tree. It is a large part of a tree from a neighbouring property (41 Tilt Road) that fell during a storm, smashing the fence at the bottom of my garden that now needs replacing. The remains of the tree (on the neighbouring property) has survived and will not be touched. I am looking to remove the fallen element of the tree that is on my property in order to allow me to replace my fence. Please note that the fallen tree is dangerous, it is also deteriorating and shifting as it does; if not removed it is possible that it will fall towards the boundary with 41 Tilt Road and smash the fence between the two properties leading to further remedial fencing work being required. Please note, as mentioned above, the tree is on a neighbouring property; it is not owned by me, i have provided the contact details for the owner in the next section (this applies to this tree only, it does not apply to tree 1).

1 Kings Manor Court Oatlands Chase Weybridge Surrey KT13 9SG
Tree Preservation Order EL:20/08 - T38 - Oak Request to fell to ground level due to the tree's significantly declining condition and reduced long-term viability. The tree has been affected by Oak Processionary Moth (OPM), which has resulted in extensive crown dieback and a substantial reduction in vitality. In addition, the tree has suffered historic ring-barking damage caused during the construction of the adjacent residential development. This damage has disrupted the tree's vascular system and has likely contributed to its ongoing decline and limited ability to recover. The combined effects of OPM infestation and the historic stem damage have resulted in a severely compromised tree with extensive deadwood and dieback throughout the crown. The tree is located adjacent to neighbouring properties and areas of public access, and its deteriorating condition increases the risk of branch failure. Given the extent of the decline, poor physiological condition, and limited prospects for recovery, remedial pruning would not provide a sustainable long-term solution. Permission is therefore sought to fell the tree to ground level on the grounds of safety, declining health, and sound arboricultural management. A new tree wouild be planted to replacement

East Molesey Kent Town Conservation Area - T1 - Lime tree on rear boundary - tree has a height of approximately 20 metres and spread of approximately 12 metres. Proposed works are to reduce crown by approximately 2-2.5 metres to previous pruning points, remove regrowth on main trunk to lift crown to a height of approximately 3 metres, leaving the tree with a height of approximately 17.5 metres and spread of approximately 8 metres. These works are being carried out to give clearance from pool house, maintain the tree at a reasonable size suitable to location by carrying out cyclical pruning and allowing light into pool area.

34 Clive Road Esher Surrey KT10 8PS
Esher Conservation Area - T1 Leyland Cypress (Rear Garden) Fell to ground level. Reason for Works: The tree is situated in very close proximity to the adjacent outbuilding. As the tree has matured, the stem has increased to a diameter at breast height (DBH) of approximately 40 cm and is now in direct contact with the structure, causing abrasion and damage to the building. Due to the ongoing increase in stem diameter, further structural damage is considered likely if the tree is retained. The proposed removal is therefore necessary to prevent additional damage while maintaining the safety and integrity of the adjacent structure. T2 Lawson Cypress (Rear Garden) Remove one large declining lateral limb and carry out a crown clean to remove all deadwood throughout the canopy. Reason for Works: A substantial lateral limb is in decline, exhibiting extensive dieback and a significant reduction in live foliage. The removal of this limb is proposed to reduce the risk of branch failure and improve the tree's overall condition. In addition, deadwood will be removed throughout the crown to eliminate potential hazards, improve canopy health, and form part of routine arboricultural management.
