Planning application
21 Emily Davison Drive Epsom Downs Surrey KT18 5QH
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1 and T2 Conifers - 2 meter reduction. Low lying vegetation to be removed leaving healthy trees. Reason for reduction - to re balance the tree, also as it's on a slop and all weight is toward the house, limbs over neighbours garden. Add some light to small back garden. Hasn't been done since the property was built. Needs to be part of ongoing maintenance plan.

T1- 2 meter reduction. As the tree is within a meter of property. Over high traffic areas and is very dense from previous work on the tree. Could do with a crown clean. T2 - Pine/Fir to be crown lifted 4 lowest limbs which would be 3.5 meter crown lift from base. Remaining tree reduced 30% so selectively 1.5 meter for most but there are a few limbs that are slightly longer which would need more like 2 meter reduction to bring it into a beautiful healthy shape.
