Ironwood Heath Drive Walton On The Hill Surrey KT20 7QJ

Granted Reigate and Banstead 24/00299/TPO Tree Preservation Order

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

T1 - 2x Leylandii - Reduce the height of 2x leylandii?s by 4m. Height to be no lower than the height of T5. To provide more light into the garden and prevent them from becoming too large near the house. T2 - 2x Leylandii - Remove 2x leylandii to ground level to prevent them competing with the Lawson cypresses, show casing the Lawsons in the garden. T3 - 1x Cedar - Selectively reduce in any out of shape branches back into the canopy line. The aim is to improve the aesthetics. Thin by 20% to allow more light throughout the canopy. Reduce the southern side by 1m back to appropriate growth points near previous reduction points. The aim is to allow more light into the garden and house. T4 - 1x Lawson Cypress- Reduce the height by 4m, reducing only the section not visible due to being blocked by the cedar. The aim is to allow more light into the garden. T5 - 1x False Cypress - Remove to ground level. False cypress showing signs of decline. T6 - 1x Acer - Reduce canopy by 1m to keep the tree in a manageable size, before a more drastic reduction is needed. T7 - 1x Ironwood - Lift the canopy overhanging the road by 2m to provide good clearance for vehicles. No structural branches to be cut, only the secondary branches dropping down. Remove major deadwood for safety reasons.

    T2 RE1459.. 1x Lawson Cypress. The tree is a heavily weighted multi stem with many defects, twisted crossing and rubbing limbs, there is a tight enclosed union approximately 1.5 metres from ground level with early signs of decay, a cavity to the back of one of the main stems. I feel the best option would be to fell it ground level given its location being so close to the house and that the tree is in decline and any pruning would only make the tree look unethically pleasing to the eye and only be prolonging the inevitable. There is a healthy yew tree adjacent which will benefit from the removal of T2 and will have more room to flurish.
