40 Crown House, Talfourds Solicitors North Street RM11 1EW
T1 Holm Oak located to the northern end of the street front car park at Crown House. North Street. Hornchurch. T1 Holm Oak â?? selective whole-crown reduction. Carry out a selective whole-crown reduction to T1 Holm Oak, not exceeding 4 m in any part of the crown, pruning back to suitable secondary growth points and/or historic pruning points where available. The works are to include reduction of the eastern crown to provide clearance of a minimum of 1.5m from the eastern face windows of Crown House, together with a balancing reduction to the remaining crown sections to retain a natural and balanced crown form. All works are to be undertaken in accordance with BS 3998:2010. The reasons for the works are to reduce crown encroachment over Crown House, lessen end-weight on extended scaffold limbs, improve crown balance, and reduce mechanical loading associated with the treeâ??s developed crown form. The tree has an established history of crown reduction, including previous consents in 2008 and 2018, and no reduction has been carried out since the 2018 consent. The crown has since extended approximately 3â??4 m over the building, with foliage close to upper windows. The proposed works are therefore intended as proportionate cyclical management to retain the Holm Oak safely as an amenity tree while addressing building clearance, structural loading and crown imbalance.

T1 - Sycamore Tree, The tree contains major dead branches and limbs and there fore needs a pollard back down to live wood, 6.1 meters which would give the tree a chance to promote new healthy growth so that the tree can re generate. If this dead limbs are not taken out they run the risk of failing and braking off and causing damage to neighbouring properties out buildings.
