To fell two Katsuras between the buildings of 18 and 20. The trees have out grown the space for a healthy sustainable life span. Both are now brushing the rooves of number 20 and the roof and roof window of 18a causing noise in the bedroom when windy. Both trees are growing next to the (I believe) old Victorian wall dividing the properties and impacting on the integrity of its foundations. To reduce the conifers in the back garden to a hedge to the current lowest point to allow light into the rear of the garden again. To fell 2 self seeded yews too close to a healthy sycamore that is protected with a TPO . To fell a self seeded holly.

All of the work required is to free the path taken by our telephone cable to the telegraph pole at the corner of our property. This is to enable us to protect the cables to our property own and multiple neighbours and to enable engineers to change our cable from copper to fibre. The cable is very thin and not easy to see in the trees but I have done my best to show it in a series of photos. 1) It first passes through a couple of very small branches of a very big lime tree. We request permission to have these very small branches pruned back to give the cable free passage. 2) Next our cable and several of the cables running to adjacent properties pass through a group of five young but tall and spindly Silver Birch trees. Pushing against the trunk of the birches shows that their branches rub against the cables. We seek permission to remove these trees completely. They are thin and quite spindly and will seriously affect multiple cables if they get bigger. 3) Thirdly the cable runs through and rubs against multiple stems of a brown multi-stem hazel tree. This is particularly hard to show on photos. We seek permission to reduce the height of the Hazel by 50%. 4) Lastly the cable runs through a Pine tree. It is snagged on one of the Pine tree branches and then runs on at an angle beyond that point. We seek permission to remove two small branches of the pine tree that are blocking the course of the cable. The yellow marks are on the relevant branches.

Our Eucalyptus tree in our back garden is a lot higher than our house and grows very quickly as Eucalyptus trees do. We therefore need to keep it maintained to ensure it is safe and to avoid the branches touching our roof. We will be employing an Arborist who will reduce the overall size of the crown to reduce the risk of larger branches falling on our house or on people below. We will keeping the existing shape of the crown. The crown will be reduced by no more than when it was previously trimmed back 5-7 years ago by the previous house owner.
