Proposal
BROCKWELL PARK, BOUNDARY ADJOINING 17A BRAILSFORD ROAD: T1 Lime. REMOVE lower epicormic growth back to the property boundary up to the crown break at approximately 4.5m. REDUCE branches above the crown break by approximately 2.5m on the 17A Brailsford Road side only, pruning to suitable growth points. Council Note: The submitted address relates to the adjoining property, but the stem of T1 is located within Brockwell Park. The tree is therefore within the Brockwell Park Conservation Area and is understood to be Council owned. Any works remain subject to the agreement of the Council service responsible for managing the tree.

T1 & T2 - Two limes - crown Reduce height by 2m from 12m to 10m. Reduce laterals by 1.5m from 6m to 4.5m on all compass points, cutting back to the previous reduction points. Both are semi-mature limes standing to the rear of the property. The trees have been reduced previously and the regrowth from those earlier cuts has extended beyond the established points, carrying increasing end-weight on the resulting unions and taking the crown out of proportion with its position over the garden, the adjoining boundaries and the neighbouring buildings. The proposed works return the crown to the existing reduction points, in line with the works proposed for T3 and T4, retaining the tree in full along with its established shape and its contribution to the publicly visible canopy. T3 & T4 - Two limes - crown reduce Reduce height by 3m from 18m to 15m. Reduce laterals by 2m from 7m to 5m on all compass points, cutting back to the previous reduction points. Two mature limes standing to the rear of the property, one of a pair with T4. The trees has been reduced previously and is managed on a maintenance cycle; the regrowth from those earlier cuts has now extended well beyond the established points and is carrying increasing end-weight on the resulting unions, which are the weakest part of the structure. The proposed works return the crown to the existing reduction points, retaining the established shape and form of the tree and keeping it in proportion to its position over the garden and the adjoining boundaries. T5 - Plum - crown reduce Reduce height by 1m from 6m to 5m. Reduce laterals by 1m from 4m to 3m on all compass points. A plum s

T1 Robinia sp. (x1) Reduce crown by 2.5-3m off height and width. Reason: Lost two stems in October. The branches had weak unions with the old pollard head, causing them to fail under their own weight. T2 Robinia sp. (x1) Reduce crown by 1.5m all around. Reason: To lessen the load on the crown. T3 Robinia sp. (x1) Reduce crown by 1m all around. Reason: To lessen the load on the crown.
