Proposal

Tree Preservation Order EL:10/04 - With respect to both of these lime trees (T29 and T30), we are applying for permission to remove epicondral growth, lift the crown to 8 meters from the ground and reduce the crown by 20%. This will increase light and visibility around both trees and reduce the risk of damage to people and property caused by deadwood which falls in windy weather. The final heights of the two trees will be maintained at height of 22 meters (T29) and 23 meters (T30). Please note that applications 2020/1299 and 2023/2771 for these two trees were granted consent and this application is effectively a resubmission of the same requests.T29 - Lime - Crown lift to 8m and crown reduce radial spread only by up to 2m.Final pruning wounds not to exceed 40mm diameter.T30 - Lime - Crown lift to 8m and crown reduce radial spread only by up to 2m.Final pruning wounds not to exceed 40mm diameter.

    20 Albany Close Esher Surrey KT10 9JR

    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.
