G1 - Cypress Suggested Works: Dismantle southernmost tree (closest to residential property) in stages to near ground level, reduce height of remaining two trees by 2 metres, Maximum Diameter of Cuts (MDC) 50mm. Trim all round to shape. Rationale: The southernmost tree of the group is clearly in a declining state - there is dieback in the canopy plus separation between the stems on the southern side. Additionally, the tree is growing within 50cms of the residential property. With limited pruning options available, due to the tree's species and form, and the current state of the tree we believe that the tree is not suitable for retention and removal is the only viable option. Reducing the two remaining trees is to reduce loadings on the newly exposed stems following the removal of the adjacent tree in G1.

We intend to prune our Mimosa Tree at the front of the property to keep it well maintained and prevent it from protruding significantly into the Highway. This also obstructs visibility for those using the courtyard which is a safety concern. Please see image of tree and location plan. NB: Tree is the larger of the two canopies depicted in the front garden on the plans (SE corner). The proposed works consist of a selective crown reduction to the outer extremities of the canopy. It is intended to reduce the length of the overextended branches to approx 1.5-2m from the branch tips equating to an overall reduction of no more than 20-30% of the crown volume.

Rock Bank West Higher Manor Road Brixham TQ5 8HA

Oak T1 - Proposed work: Fell. Justification: The tree exhibits a pronounced lean with a restricted rooting environment, resulting in reduced structural stability. Removal is appropriate due to limited long-term retention potential. Natural regeneration is generally expected and seen as a suitable strategy for this species. Oak T2 - Proposed work: Re-coppice to previous points. Justification: Evidence of decay within the lower stem. Re-coppicing helps restore a stable coppice stool and keeps the tree contributing to the hedge structure. Natural regeneration is generally expected and seen as a suitable replacement strategy for this species. Oak T3 - Proposed work: Fell. Justification: Significant lean combined with constrained rooting space, limiting safe future development. Removal is appropriate given the low long-term viability. Natural regeneration is generally expected and seen as a suitable strategy for this species. Oak T4 - Re-coppice to previous points. Justification: Decay is present in the lower stem. Re-coppicing helps restore a stable coppice stool and keeps the tree contributing to the hedge structure. Natural regeneration is generally expected and seen as a suitable replacement strategy for this species. Sycamore T5 - Proposed work: Crown reduction by up to 2m, maintaining natural form. Justification: Works intended to manage crown spread and maintain appropriate clearance while retaining tree health and amenity value. The tree lost its stability and possibly some roots when the neighbouring wall collapsed last year. Oak T6 - Proposed work: Remove the lowest-order branch only. Justification: Minor branch removal required to facilitate access for larger vehicles. The branch is of small diameter with an acceptable 3:1 ratio, and removal will not adversely affect the tree's form or vitality.

T001 - 1 x Copper beech (Fagus sylvatica purpurea) - Reduce to tree in height from 13m to 11m not exceeding wounds of 75mm, and radial crown spread from 6.5m to 5m not exceeding wounds of 75mm. Crown raise tree to give a maximum clearance of 2.5 metres from the property. Justification for works - The tree has been reduced historically and has responded well resulting in limited amenity loss and a better relationship between tree and property.

35 Ranscombe Road Brixham TQ5 9UU

The reason for the tree removal request is that the location and size/type of tree are incompatible. The tree is a Mexican Fan Palm which are fast growing, with heights up to 100 feet possible. The tree is located only a few metres from 2 properties, and specifically located adjacent to a main road (Ranscombe Road, a major access road to the Marina/Berry Head) with a raised wall supporting surrounding properties. The tree is already causing issues for a small retaining wall (see photo attached) and the damage to the immediate location will only get worse such that it is believed that removal will inevitably be required at some point, so it makes sense to do this sooner rather than later (thereby reducing impact, cost and technical issues). We have commissioned a review by a professional local company (Advanced Tree Care, Brixham) who have visited the site and clarified that tree management/maintenance options were strictly limited due to the tree type, such that it is only possible to remove dead leaves for appearances rather than control growth. There is another palm tree within a metre of the Fan Palm and the plan is to leave that one, letting it flourish with the improved light such that the visual impact of losing the Fan Palm is diminished over time.

Tree 1 - conifer- to be removed as outgrown its position & causing an obstruction. Tree 2 - Crown reduction to approx 12 ft tall & 6 ft wide. Tree 3 - Crown reduction to approx 20ft tall x 10ft wide. There are currently brambles & ivy growing within which makes it look much denser & will be removed. Tree 4 - conifer - It will only be dead branches which will be removed which I realise permission is not required for. So no new picture. Tree 5 - the Pittosporum will require crown reduction. Unfortunately due to its current height & position it is difficult to estimate what the reduction will be to but is still likely approx 20 ft tall & 10ft wide. As can be seen there is a variegated ivy growing up it which will be be removed.

T001 Copper beech (Fagus sylvatica purpurea) - Sectionally dismantle and fell. T001 is situated approximately 1.2 metres from the dwelling, with 6?7 metres of canopy overhang, resulting in physical interference with the building, retaining wall damage consistent with root expansion, shading of habitable rooms, and ongoing maintenance burden . Although assessed as a tolerable risk, its retention would require repeated pruning that is considered unsustainable and likely to compromise its long-term form . The report also notes that the tree?s public visibility and wider amenity value are limited, with substantial surrounding tree cover maintaining local character . Replacement planting in a more suitable location within the garden is recommended , ensuring continued tree cover without the existing structural conflict or adverse impact on the enjoyment of the property.

T1/2/3 Monterey Cypress (group of 3) It is proposed to fell the three Monterey cypress trees within Group G1, leaving standing monoliths at approximately 1.5 metres above ground level to match the height and appearance of adjacent retained trees. The trees are highly exposed and have a history of limb failure during periods of high wind over the last 2 years. Ongoing branch loss presents an increasing risk to the client's property, neighbouring property, and the adjacent railway line.

The proposed cyclical reduction of the sycamore back to previous pruning points, approximately 1.5m. Plan is to maintain the health, structure, and long term vitality of the tree. The tree was previously reduced about five years ago, and cyclical reductions help manage its size, shape, and structural integrity.

Churston Cottage Bascombe Road Brixham TQ5 0JS

Monterey Cypress (T1) - Reduce the crown by approximately 2 metres on the eastern side only to correct the developing structural imbalance and to reduce the likelihood of further branch failure, supporting the tree's health and stability. All reduction cuts will be made back to appropriate lateral growth points, and no pruning wound will exceed 50 mm in diameter. All works will be undertaken in accordance with BS3998:2010 - Tree Work Recommendations, ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulations. This selective reduction is necessary to maintain the tree's stability, structural integrity, and safety, especially following the recent stem failure and loss of shelter from neighbouring trees.

Beech Lodge 5 Orchard Close Brixham TQ5 0LS

T1 European lime Tilia x europaea T1 is a mature lime tree that is growing within close proximity of the neighbouring building (within 1m) due to its size limbs are becoming heavily weighted and more likely to fail. Also large amounts of deadwood and debris regularly fall of the roof. T1 is growing very close to a mature beech tree and starting to affect the shape of the beech tree. I would like to reduce T1 by 20% in order to match the final height of the beech tree adjacent. this will keep the tree safe next to building by removing weight from weighted branches. and keep the aesthetics of the trees growing as one canopy. I would also like to remove the lowest primary overhanging the neighbours roof. T2 Beech Fagus sylvatica T2 is a mature beech tree growing within close proximity of beech lodge and the neighbouring property. I would like to reduce t2 by 30% and reshape as marked it pic 1. this will remove risk from heavily weighted branches failing, and reduce the amount the tree catches the wind in a built up area. reducing the risk of the tree while keeping the tree for the aesthetics of the road. this should be maintained every 5 years on a cyclical basis

Plan is to pollard T1 (Sycamore) and T2 (Oak) to the height of the larger conifer hedge as shown in marked photo. The primary reason for this work is risk mitigation. A large Ash tree that previously stood directly between T1 and T2 failed a few years ago, falling into the school playground located immediately behind the property. Honey fungus was identified on the failed Ash, indicating the potential for decay and structural weakness in trees of this proximity and species. Pollarding T1 and T2 to the height of the neighboring conifer hedge will limit the risk of structural failure while maintaining the trees in a safe and manageable form. The proposed pollarding is proportionate and minimal, ensuring the trees continue to contribute to the character and visual amenity of the area, while mitigating the risk posed by potential fungal infection or structural defects.
