  We moved into this property in December 2025. The house had been unoccupied for nearly a year and little or no work appears to have been carried out to boundary and trees by the previous owners. There are two areas of work we are proposing to carryout. Silver Birch tree to left of property. The Silver Birch tree has been pollarded previously and it is planned to pollard back to the previous level to keep the tree under control (crown reduction by approx 5 metres. It is planned to get the hedge under control and rover the boundary and a number of Lilac shrubs. Yew Tree to Right of Property. Once again the Yew has been left to grow uncontrolled. The tree is very close to the house (trunk 2.6 metres from building) and the surveyor commented that the tree overhang could damage the flat roof, and also the closeness of the trunk to the house could potentially cause damage to foundations through root activity. Apparently by reducing the crown it will slow root activity and reduce risk of roof damage. Therefore we propose to clear shrubs around the base of the Yew to help the rootstock and reduce the crown by 2/3rds (approx 4 metres) and shape the ensuing regrowth. Obviously for a project of this size we will be using a qualified arborist and dates have not been planned - I understand it must be at least 6 weeks from this email.. I have attached a number of photos for information, and please do not hesitate to ask if you need any further information. Many Thanks

  1 x Yew Situated in rear garden next to swimming pool, tree is on the end of a large formal yew hedge and has suffered badly from invasive ivy.Works proposed are to reduce tree down to hedge level and form part of the large formal hedge as quite a bit of low level young growth is present to encourage regeneration. I would say reduce by 6meters , which would be down to the same height as the rest of the old existing yew hedges

  St Christophers High Street Twyford Hampshire SO21 1NH

  T1- Walnut: Permission to carry out a full canopy reduction, reducing the height of the tree by between 2-3m, and the lateral aspects by 1-2m. The tree is getting very large for it's surroundings as well as causing interference with the road, and structure beneath. The Owner wishes to contain the tree to a size appropriate for he garden. T2- Lime: Full canopy reduction by between 50-60%. The tree is incredibly close to the house and blocks a huge amount of light. It has also lost two limbs over the summer months, which have narrowly missed vehicles using the turning space at the end of the road, as well as a high number of pedestrians. This work would allow the tree to be retained at a more appropriate size, and greatly minimising the risk of any further limb failures for an area with such high footfall. T3- Indian Bean Tree: Full canopy reduction by between 2 and 3m. The tree is far too large for it's location, impeeding both the houses and also the pavement. This reduction would allow the the tree to be retained whilst avoiding impact on surrounding structures and footpaths.
