Lorien Brook Village Road Brighstone Newport Isle Of Wight PO30 4EJ
92% historically approved · decision due ~27 Nov
T1; Sycamore - Dismantle to near ground level. Reason: This road-side tree is in a state of terminal decline. Carrying significant dead wood in the crown and with numerous defects in the stem, it is felt that restorative work would not be sufficient to enable successful retrenchment or rejuvenation. Highly likely to coppice at stump and remain as a feature in a different form. T2; Macrocarpa - Dismantle to near ground level. Reason: Following detailed discussion with both the owner of the tree and Mr. J. Willis (senior Tree Officer), it was decided that to improve growing conditions and and to encourage greater wind-firming of the adjacent cedar, removal of the macrocarpa would be beneficial. The macrocarpa has outgrown its position and has little amenity value (esp. when compared with the potential value of the cedar, if managed correctly into the future).

G1; Holly group - Reduce height of group by approx. 50% to improve form and future manageability. T2; Bay - Fell to coppice to allow rejuvenation in a more manageable form. T3; Sycamore - Pollard at approx. 4m to mitigate potential crown failure. This tree has suffered extensive bonfire damage, rendering reduction unadvisable. T4; Sycamore - Fell - Self sown specimen adjacent to a tree of superior form. Removal will benefit the retained tree in future. T5; Sycamore - Crown lift to approx. 5m to improve form. T6 & T7; Coppiced bays and sycamores - Coppice - Various stools showing severe basal decay. Coppicing will enable retention as a structural component of the border. T8; Weeping willow - Reduce/remove (as appropriate) lower, over-extended limbs to mitigate potential failure in high wind and serious structural damage to main stem. Currently, the upper crown is well balanced and in good condition, though top-height renders the tree very exposed to coastal wind.
