Proposal
Tree Preservation Order - T1 Oak: Reduce the overall crown by approximately 1.5 metres and crown lift to approximately 4 metres. Remove deadwood and any branches identified as presenting a foreseeable safety risk. T2 Oak: Reduce the overall crown by approximately 1.5 metres. Remove deadwood and any branches identified as presenting a foreseeable safety risk. T3 Oak: Reduce the overall crown by approximately 1.5 metres. Remove deadwood and any branches identified as presenting a foreseeable safety risk. T4 Beech: Reduce the overall crown by approximately 1.5 metres. Remove deadwood and any branches identified as presenting a foreseeable safety risk. T5 Oak: Reduce the overall crown by approximately 1.5 metres. Remove deadwood and any branches identified as presenting a foreseeable safety risk. T6 Oak: Reduce the overall crown by approximately 1.5 metres including the lateral branches overhanging the road. Remove deadwood and any branches identified as presenting a foreseeable safety risk. Reason for Proposed Works: The proposed works are intended to maintain the trees in a healthy, safe and appropriately managed condition whilst retaining their amenity and landscape value. The trees are becoming increasingly large in relation to their surroundings, and a moderate crown reduction is proposed to manage their size and maintain an appropriate form. The applicant values the trees and wishes to retain them for the long term. The proposed works are therefore intended as part of ongoing good arboricultural management rather than removal or excessive pruning. All works will be carried out in accordance with BS 3998:2010 Tree Work Recommendations and using appropriate arboricultural techniques.

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.
