  T1 ? Horse Chestnut. Crown reduce by up to 2m, maximum diameter of cut 60mm T2 ? Lombardy Poplar. Crown lift to comply with the Highways Act 1980 by removing the first two roadside limbs, 1 @ 60mm MDC & 1 @ 150mm MDC T3 ? Lombardy Poplar. Dismantle to ground level Reason for Works: ? T1 is getting to be a large tree and the stem exhibits a cavity on the south eastern aspect. Although the cavity is unlikely to significantly reduce the structural stability of the tree in the near future, due to the species? known inability to restrict decay pathogens it would be wise to contain the tree?s size whilst the works would still be an appropriate management option. ? T2 is to comply with Highways Act 1980. ? T3 has a significant cavity at the base of the tree and is not suitable for retention.

  19 Falkland Close Exeter EX4 5EZ

  Oak tree on no mans land embankment which over looks garden of 18 Falkland Close, Exeter, EX4 5EZ. It has a large branch overhanging our garden. Tree surgeon Mitchell Tree Surgery has visited site and advised it needs to be removed. He says it is a large overhanging heavy limb which could cause considerable damage. Last year a large branch from a neighbouring oak next to It came down in a storm and caused damage. Our neighbours in number 18 and ourselves are concerned about this particular branch we wish to report to be removed. The tree itself has grown to 60 foot plus range and we all feel our houses are at risk. Sketch plan attached
