Proposal
Tree Preservation Order EL:89/35 - To prune the Horse Chestnut tree as labelled as number 4 on the Tree Protection Plan, which is protected by TPO EL:89/35. We wish to reduce the crown by 1.5m inline with the other pruning agreed on all the TPO trees at the north east edge border of the property that is shared with 131 Fairmile. This tree has already been pruned on the other side to agreed spec of 1.5m and max diameter of 50mm. This is to take the crown away from the property and provide sufficient clearance.

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.
