Planning application
Willows 136 Croydon Road Reigate Surrey RH2 0NQ
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1 - Horse chestnut. Fell / dismantle down to ground level and grind out the remaining root. Reason: The tree appears to have patches of bleeding canker in both of the stems as well as the canopy. There are large sized dead / split limbs overhanging the pavement and the road. Coniophora puteana also appears to be present on the lower left hand stem with a section spanning around 1 meter long and 20cm wide. There are also several patches of exposed heartwood where I expect fruiting bodies are exposing themselves (not present at the time of my visit / no invasive testing was undertaken). T2 - Sycamore. Fell to ground level and grind out the remaining stump. Reason: The tree is located in the very corner of the front garden, it is growing over Croydon Road and well as fosse lodges property at an angle due to being overcrowded (mainly due to the chestnut and yew tree). The tree has poor structural form, there are signs of included bark in the union of the first fork union.

21 Old Oak Avenue Chipstead Surrey CR5 3PG
T1- Cedar (Cedrus Atlantica). Selective pruning of the lateral crown to reduce over extended limbs by 1.5-2m (Predominately on the east and west sides to rebalance), reduce other limbs where necessary to appropriate growth points with the goal of reducing weight load and rebalancing the crown. Remove deadwood over 40mm diameter and 50cm length. Reduce or remove large dead limb on west side of tree at 3m height. Supply and installation of 3x non-invasive 8tn Cobra bracing between three co-dominant stems, to reduce movement between branch unions and mitigate likelihood of structural failure. Use of a mobile elevated working platform (cherry picker) will be utilised to ensure we prune to the appropriate points, for tree health and aesthetics.

Land Adjacent To 150 Fleetwood Close Tadworth Surrey KT20 5PG
Trees 1 and 2 (adjacent 150) prune back from their dwelling/garage by circa 3m and remove deadwood. The branches of both trees are extending across the curtilage of 150 Fleetwood Close. Some are in close proximity to the dwelling. Early pruning work, as requested, will enable the tree crown to be managed without recourse to substantial pruning cuts. Early intervention is therefore considered to be best practice in accordance with BS3998:2010: Tree Works - Recommendations. Tree 3 reduce height to circa 6m above ground level. The tree is in decline and presents no regenerative growth from lower on the branches or stem structure. If regenerative growth had been present it would have been feasible to specify pruning works to suitable growth points. Given the state of decline and absence of suitable pruning points it is considered prudent to remove the major branches but retain the lower stem for its ecological value. Works can be undertaken in accordance with BS3998:2010: Tree Works - Recommendations.
