66 Magdalen Road Exeter EX2 4TN
Quercus ilex - in front driveway. I would like to arrange for a tree surgeon to reduce the size by 25%. It over hangs the public highway (Magdalen Road), it's planted up against a grade 2 listed wall and it's approx 5 meters from our house (66 Magdalen Road). The tree is in good health, however it's large and hasn't been pruned for a couple of years. It's also been planted in a raised planting area so my concerns are that if left at this size it may be hazardous during a storm and could cause a lot of damage. Laurus nobilis - in back garden. I would like this also reducing by 25%. It's also planted in a raised planing area, and up against a grade 2 listed wall. It's very large and over hangs our south facing lawn.

T2 Fig Tree ? removal of tree. This tree grows right up against a grade two listed cob party wall which party wall neighbours recently had to be repaired prior to us moving into our house on 13th November. This tree had been left to grow uncontrolled over a number of years by the previous owners and is out of shape and proportion to its location. We are open to advice on appropriate replanting due to the proximity of T1 TPO 331 Holm Bush. T3 Bay Tree ? Crown reduction and crown lifting to maintain the historic shape of the tree in proportion to its location and allow light and space for the accompanying garden. It is proposed to reduce the vertical growth of the tree as viewed in the accompanying picture. A height reduction of 6-8 feet and a crown lifting of 4 feet.
