Photo 1 Shows the three trees in question. The trees are protruding out of the cliff wall below our garden safety fence they have not been trimmed for many years and we have recently moved in so we wish to stop any further cliff damage from the weight of the canopy Tree 1 We wish to trim the top canopy see image 3 for clarity. Tree 2 We wish to remove as it is causing the upper part of the cliff to be unstable. It?s is very close to Tree 1 It is also causing excessive damp and leaves in our neighbours garden below making it difficult for them to be kept safe as the leaves all fall on their flat roof below which is causing damage. If the tree was to become more unstable / dangerous or even fall it would go straight through their roof Tree 3 is about 12 feet further down the cliff and we wish to trim this so it does not get too large and cause further cliff damage or fall onto the property below. At present it is medium size and it would be prudent to not let it get larger. Photo 2 Shows the same three trees but from the Terrace at the front of the building. Photo 3 Shows the trim area on Tree 1 The removal of Tree 2 and the trim area on tree 3 Photo 4 is an aerial / plan view of the property location and the trees involved.

Lanark Lodge Woodend Road Torquay TQ1 2PZ

Tree Species and Reference: Lime (T1) - as identified on the sketch plan. Description of Proposed Works: Fell to ground level. Reason for Works: The basal stem exhibits extensive decay with a large area of dysfunction and an open cavity, consistent with advanced wood degradation. There is clear evidence of ascending decay, indicating progressive structural compromise originating from a root infection. The tree, approximately 4 metres in height, was last pollarded in 2010. Given the extent of decay and the presence of an open cavity at the base, the structural integrity of the stem is significantly compromised. The tree owner has expressed concern regarding the safety of retaining the tree in its current condition, particularly due to its proximity to areas of frequent access by occupants of the neighbouring property. Replacement Planting Proposal: A replacement Lime tree (Tilia - europaea) is proposed to be planted within the same vicinity, subject to site suitability. The replacement will be container-grown, approximately 10-12 cm girth, and planted during the next dormant season to ensure successful establishment.

Cote House 60A Trumlands Road Torquay TQ1 4RB

Copper Beach Tree near entrance to drive on the left hand side of the entrance as you face the house. Tree has grown very large and we have been advised by a tree surgeon that it has signs of fungus on quite a few branches which appear to be consistent with the fungus biscogniauxia nummularia on branches that hang over the road. Therefore the tree could be dangerous in high winds as branches could come off and fall onto the road to hit cars or people. So please can we take the tree down completely.

T1 - Monterey Cypress. Remove major hazardous deadwood T2 - Holm Oak. Reduce height by 4m, maximum diameter of cut (MDC) 75mm. Reduce southern aspect by 3-4m, MDC 1 @ 125mm, remaining at 75mm. Reduce eastern aspect by 3m, MDC 75mm Reason for Works: T1 is clearly in decline and the deadwood needs removing on safety grounds T2 is heavily weighted to the south and is having a significant impact on the property below. Given the tree?s characteristics and the ground conditions, a weight reduction is recommended to reduce leverage, and therefore loadings, on both the tree and at ground level. As Holm Oaks generally tolerate such works well, the specified reduction is expected to have minimal impact on the tree?s physiological process and health overall.

Planning Application to Fell Sycamore Tree T2 (TPO) Sea Pines Sycamore Tree T2 ? Fell. Decay found at the base of the tree, penetrating by approximately 6-8 inches and extending up the trunk by approximately 12 inches. With all the current weather conditions and the fact that this tree is in close proximity and leaning towards our bungalow, we are concerned that this Sycamore tree T2 is now a safety risk to our property. An inspection of the tree was made by a qualified arborist Mr James Northcott of Trees in Need, who confirmed this significant decay, and recommended that the tree be felled on the grounds of safety. As we are deeply concerned about planting trees in close proximity to our property, we are happy to plant an attractive tree such as a Liquidambar Styraciflua on our northern boundary. This would offer amenity value forming an attractive group of trees alongside our Tulip Tree.

St Raphaels Lodge Higher Lincombe Road Torquay TQ1 2EY

Yew (T1) - 8m height. Remove due to: complete loss of light to the living room and master bedroom, shade causing damage to the house, interfering with data line from the telegraph pole, damage to cars with shedding needles, loss of view from house, concerns over the lean of the tree towards the house. We are uncertain that the tree is covered by the area TPO. Images from 2009 show the tree to be significantly smaller. Earlier development plans of the site found on the council database from the 1980s state that none of the trees on the site appear to be protected and no plans show the tree to be mapped - info attached separately. However, due to the variable growth rate of Yew trees and the fact that there are no photographs of the site to allow us to definitively confirm the tree wasn't present in 1973, we are submitting the application as a precaution.
