  Tree Preservation Order - EL:97/06 - T1 - Holly - Fell - The Holly is a poor-quality specimen with limited amenity value. In addition, felling the tree will improve natural light levels to the garden and the property, enhancing the usability and enjoyment of these areas. The removal of this specimen is not expected to have a significant adverse impact on the overall character or amenity of the site. T2 - Sycamore - remove juvenile stem and reduce remainder by 3m to leave finished height of 7m and finished spread of 3m. Again the work will improve light levels reaching the garden and the property, which are currently significantly affected by the size and spread of the tree. Removing the juvenile stem and carrying out a sympathetic crown reduction will help maintain the tree at a more appropriate size for its location while retaining its overall health, form, and amenity value. The proposed works are considered proportionate and represent ongoing tree management rather than unnecessary or excessive pruning.

  Tree Preservation Order EL:97/06:G8 - multi-stemmed Sycamores nearest the house - selectively fell two trees in the group and reduce the remaining trees in the group by 3m to leave finished height of 10m. G8 - remaining Sycamore - reduce by 6m to leave finished height of 10m. G9 - furthest group from house - selectively fell 3 trees from the group and reduce the remaining trees in the group by 3m to leave finished height of 10m The above work will significantly improve the natural light available in the garden and improve planting conditions below. G9 - Oak in centre of property - fell to ground level - the tree has become disproportionately large for its position in the centre of the garden and is causing excessive shading. Pruning will not provide a long term solution. T11 - Oak on left of property - reduce overall by 3m to leave a finished height of 14m and finished spread of 9m. The tree has been previously pruned and requires continued pruning to maintain a suitable size and shape.

  Tree Preservation Order EL:97/06 - T1 - Horse Chestnut - Reduce overall by 3m to leave a finished height of 18m and a finished spread of 12m. The tree has outgrown its location within the rear garden and has become disproportionately large in relation to the size of the property. The tree now casts significant shade over neighbouring residential gardens and the adjacent school playing field, reducing natural daylight and limiting the enjoyment and practical use of these areas. The proposed reduction is intended to retain the tree as an important landscape feature while reducing its overall crown size to a more appropriate scale for its location. The work will improve the light to neighbouring properties and the school grounds, reduce the tree's dominance within the garden and help maintain an appropriate balance between the tree's public amenity value and its impact on surrounding properties.

  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.
