26/00625/TCA Awaiting decision
Rosemary Cottage Clayton Road Newcastle Under Lyme Staffordshire ST5 4AD
Approval is sought to undertake essential management works on two Yew trees (Taxus baccata) located in the rear garden of Rose Cottage. The trees have not been pruned for several years, resulting in dense canopies that dominate the garden, prevent understory growth, and cause structural and access conflicts. All works are proposed, and will be carried out, in accordance with British Standard BS3998. Detailed Schedule of Works & Justification Tree 1 Yew tree,Taxus baccata (Located closest to the rear fence, adjacent to the public footpath) ? Current Condition: This tree is significantly one-sided and exhibits a distinct lean towards the main dwelling. This structural imbalance is caused by heavy shading on its rear side from a neighbouring tree. ? Proposed Work 1: Crown Reduction Specification: Reduce the lateral branches facing the house by 2?3 metres to establish a clear separation zone between the canopy and the building. Justification: The branches are in direct physical contact with the structure, roof tiles, and guttering of Rose Cottage, presenting an immediate risk of structural damage and blocked drainage. ? Proposed Work 2: Crown Lifting Specification: Lift the lower canopy to a uniform height, ensuring a minimum clearance of 2.5 metres over the public footpath. Justification: Low-hanging branches currently overhang the public footpath below a height of 2 metres, creating a direct obstruction and hazard for pedestrians. ? Proposed Work 3: Crown Thinning Specification: Thin the crown by a maximum of 30%. Justification: To reduce wind resistance on an already leaning tree, improve structural balance, and allow light filtration into the rear garden to support ground-level vegetation. Tree 2 Yew tree,Taxus baccata (Located closest to the cottage, adjacent to the patio area) ? Current Condition: A large, dominant specimen positioned next to the domestic patio and the rear elevation of the house. ? Proposed Work 1: Crown Reduction Specification: Reduce the later

Foxdene Snape Hall Road Baldwins Gate Newcastle Under Lyme Staffordshire ST5 5HS
During the recent spell of hot weather, a beech tree at the named property has had one of the stems fail and fall into the adjacent field, this has split at approx. 3m leaving a large cavity and not much strength wood to support the remaining tree and canopy. I would like to do a crown reduction by 3m on the canopy nearest the house but reduce the height by 4m, to protect the property from future possible damage caused by the failing stem which has now exposed a cavity and core wood open to the elements, the remaining timber holding the stem is diminished leaving 40% left supporting the remainder of the tree. We will monitor the tree annually for and changes in condition and under the grounds of health and safety for our client HS2 .
