    REAR: ONE leylandii (T1)(ht.10m) FELL. Reason: removal to reduce lack of light and benefit growth of surrounding trees and shrubs, part of re-landscaping entire garden including planting native trees. REAR: THREE Conifers (T2, T3, T4)(ht.8m) FELL. Reason: removal to reduce lack of light and benefit growth of surrounding trees and shrubs, part of re-landscaping entire garden including planting native trees. Informative A: the replacement native tree planting within the re-landscaping scheme is hugely appreciated for amenity, wildlife and shade to reduce increasingly high summer temperatures due to climate change. Informative B: in the re-landscaping scheme please create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity, include hedgehog highway holes in any new fencing and plant shrubs, perennials, climbers, bulbs, ground cover plants to mitigate biodiversity loss.

    249A KIRKDALE, LONDON, SE26 4QD

    FRONT: THREE Lime (T1,T2,T3)(ht.7-8m) carefully re pollard the crown back to old points aproximately 3 metres of regrowth FRONT: ONE hornbeam (T4)(ht.8m) reduce the overall size of crown by 3 metres. These trees are causing excessive shading

    12 PRINCETHORPE ROAD, LONDON, SE26 4PF

    REAR: ONE Lombardy Poplar (T1)(ht.16m) CROWN REDUCE by 10-11m to ht.5-6m, REDUCE SPREAD from 10m to 5m to create new pollard. Reason: multi-stemmed tree has had a major stem failure exposing large cavity approx.2m above gd level. Remaining stem above cavity is weighted towards neighbouring properties and a crown reduction to reduce weight and sail above cavity is urgently needed to minimise risk of future failures. Merely reducing the one stem would drastically change the balance of the overall canopy and exposure to wind would be likely to cause more failures on the remaining stems. Crown reduction is required for safety to reduce overall canopy to approximately 5-6m from ground level (please see annotated photo) to create a new pollard. Informative A: thank you for managing the tree by safe reduction to retain as a low pollard for rear amenity, wildlife and canopy shade to reduce heatwave temperatures due to climate change. Informative B: please create habitat log piles with arisings for wildlife and biodiversity.
