Planning application
Oak Lodge 8 Woodroyd Gardens Horley Surrey RH6 7LP
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Oak T1. Prune the west side of the crown above the garage to shorten branch lengths by 1m. Pruning cuts will be made strictly to appropriate growth points to mitigate the stress reaction growth. Oak T2. Prune the tree to reduce the volume of branches overall by 15%. This will be achieved by selectively pruning out branches measuring not more than 1.5m in length and not more than 5cm diameter at the pruning cut point. The selected branches will be shortened by a maximum of 1.5M. This growth is strictly growth that has arisen since the tree suffered a total crown size reduction and the reason is to reduce sail area but more importantly it is to allow the regrowth to calm down, instead of the current congested competitive growth.
