T1 Robinia at front of property on left side of car park- Tree has a heavy lean and a contorsional split running up the back side of the trunk so could pose a threat to fail in the future. Fell to ground level. T2 Triple stemmed Robinia at front of property on left side of car park- reduce canopy by 2 metres to lessen weight on stems due to poor included unions and minimize chance of failure in the future. T3 Poplar, tree is growing at heavy lean over back fence in back garden- tree has an extensive lean due to growing towards the light and heavily weighted towards the care home, recommended to reduce canopy by 2 metres to minimize strain on the root plate and weight.

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.
