  29/10/2024T1 - Monterey Pine Suggested Works: Tip reduce all extending limbs across canopy by 1-2 metres for weight alleviation, maximum diameter of cuts (MDC) 70mm. Crown lift above garden to 3m above ground level, MDC - 1 @ 100mm, remaining at 50mm. Remove major hazardous deadwood as necessary T2 - Oak Suggested Works: Crown reduce by approximately 1.5 metres to previous pruning points, MDC 25mm. T3 - Beech Suggested Works: Crown reduce by approximately 2 metres to previous pruning points, MDC 40mm. Rationale: The mature and spreading Monterey Pine has lost several limbs over the last two years and it is predicted that more will fail, reduction of the extending limbs is to reduce the chance and risk of limb failure. The remaining works are proposed as part of the reasonable and responsible management of these large trees. All works are considered arboriculturally appropriate and will have little effect on the tree's health and physiological processes.

  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
