  East Molesey Kent Town Conservation Area - T1 - Mature Lime tree situated on front boundary. Tree has a height of approximately 18 metres and spread of approximately 10 metres. Proposed works are to selectively reduce lateral branches growing towards property and road by approximately 1.5 - 2 metres and lift crown to a height of approximately 4 metres. Height of tree will not be affected by these works and spread will be reduced to approximately 7.5 - 8 metres. These works are being carried out to reduce end weight and give clearance from property, footpath and highway. T2 - Malus tree growing beside T1. Tree has a height of approximately 4 metres. Tree has a large snapped limb and poor form. Proposed works are to remove the tree due to poor condition. T3 - Mature Lawson Cypress tree near to house in back garden. Tree has a height of approximately 14 metres and spread of approximately 4.5 metres. Proposed works are to remove the tree due to low vigour and sparse crown. T4 - mature Lawson Cypress tree within lawn area. Tree has a height of approximately 14 metres and spread of approximately 5 metres. Proposed works are to lift lower crown of tree to a height of approximately 2 - 2.5 metres. These works will not affect height or spread of the tree. G1 - Mixed Group of Yew, Lawson Cypress and Bay tree on right hand side of back garden. Proposed works are to reduce side branches by approximately 1 - 1.5 metres to balance trees and regain garden area from over extended branches, whilst keeping height and screening. Bay tree has a height of approximately 5 metres and will be reduced to height of approximately 3.5 metres and trimmed to shape. G2 - Mixed Group of Yew, Lawson Cypress and Laurel on rear boundary. Proposed works are to remove understorey Laurels and reduce over extended side growth on Yew and Lawson Cypress trees to regain garden space whilst keeping height and screening.

  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.
