    5 Rectory Gardens Nottingham Nottingham City NG8 2AR

    We wish to remove a conifer tree from the bottom left hand corner of our garden it is sited approximately 8ft from the rear of the garden and approximately 2 ft from the left had border. The tree is approximately . The tree is circa 24ft high and 8 ft wide. Its incongruous with the rest of the garden and its removal would give the adjacent silver birches (2) more space to grow. It would also allow for a small shed to be sited at the rear of the garden. Since we moved into this premises ten years ago we have planted 13 trees in the garden, so whilst its never great to have to remove a tree we have really tried to enhance the environment. We have gained a quote from Acorn Tree Services to complete the work if approved.

    Fell 3 trees next 636 Wollaton Road T1 and T2 are Ash trees ( Fraxinus excelsior ) that have been identified as suffering from Ash Dieback and highlighted for removal because of this. It has been noted that both T1 & T2 have been observed with Inonotus hispidus high up the crown on more than one occasion. T3 is an Elm tree ( Ulmus procera ) that is now heavily affected by Dutch Elm disease. The further decline of all 3 trees is evident from the pictures at the bottom and due to the reduction in the timber strength caused by ash dieback the need for the removal is justified Due to the proximity to houses and the busy Road I am seeking permission to remove these trees Replant with 2 Pine trees.

    Tree Code: Sgl/106736 Species: Beech (Fagus sylvatica) TPO: TPO269 (T10) Works Sectionally fell and remove the Beech tree to ground level. Remove all timber, branches and arising debris from site. Grind out or otherwise remove the stump where practicable, or leave at ground level as directed by the client. Reason for Works The tree is exhibiting significant structural defects and decay, including: Evidence of substantial basal decay associated with fungal activity (Pholiota spp.). Hollow sounding stem indicating internal decay. Two very large historic tear-out wounds, including one approximately 5 metres above ground level. Major limb loss and loss of large branches. Abnormal buttressing and trunk form. Stem decay below the crown break. These defects indicate a significant decline in structural integrity and an increased risk of partial or whole-tree failure. Summary 1 × Beech (Fagus sylvatica) Sectional dismantling and removal of the entire tree due to advanced structural defects and decay.
