Hersham Village Conservation Area - The Common Sycamore (Tree 174 detailed in the site plan) has dropped some small limbs into neighbour's gardens. On inspection by our tree surgeon, the tree has had its bark stripped by squirrels, weakening a number of limbs. The tree surgeon has recommended the tree be cut back by 3 -4 metres on the neighbour's side to avoid any more limbs dropping and to avoid any potential health and safety issue.

Land Side of Portsmouth Road Portsmouth Road Cobham KT11 2NH
Tree Preservation Order EL:18/07 - T1 - Horse chestnut - Proposed Works: Crown lift over the roadside only to provide a minimum clearance of 5.2 metres above ground level. All pruning shall be limited to secondary branches where practicable and carried out in accordance with BS3998:2010 Tree Work Recommendations, with a maximum pruning wound diameter of 50mm. Reason for Proposed Works: Following a tree survey, it was identified that the crown over the carriageway has been subject to contact from larger vehicles in the past. The proposed crown lift will provide appropriate clearance for high-sided vehicles, reducing the likelihood of future vehicle strikes and preventing unnecessary damage to the tree, whilst retaining its long-term health and amenity value.
