Proposal
Mature Beech Tree (T2) adjacent to eleven thousand volt overhead power line. This tree is in the corner of 19 Ash Close next to a field. Under Electricity Act 1989 we require trees to be kept clear of the network to maintain a safe and continuous supply of electric. The tree is in a healthy condition. The work required on this tree is pruning on the powerline side of the tree to gain a minimum of 3 metres clearance, accounting for 2 years re-growth. All staff are NPTC qualified and pruning will be of a high standard in accordance with BS3998. Customer is happy for us to carry out this work. T2 Beech Spec: S9 Head back to suitable secondary branches to ensure m clearance from wires. Reason: R2 To ensure future compatibility with site, surroundings and usage Reason: R7 Close to building, services, road or public highway (delete as appropriate)

T3 - Horse Chestnut - Reduce by approximately 3 to 4 metres, leaving a natural flowing crown outline and remove major deadwood. T4 - To fell and remove 1 x Yew tree and install eco plugs to prevent re-growth.

P26/S4354/TPO Granted
Henley College Deanfield Avenue Henley-on-thames RG9 1UH
Ash (T2 of TPO 09/2019) - Reduce back crown over single storey block D4 by a maximum of 4m at its widest point (work mainly relates to over extended limbs over roof). Reduce back low branches over the roof to create 3m clearance. Cutback branches from front of the adjacent building (D6) to create 2-3m clearance. To help balance the crown, reduce remaining crown by approx. 2m. To avoid altering the balance of the tree as a whole, the crown of the tree should be reduced in proportion to its original shape. All pruning cuts must be made at branch junctions, leaving sufficient live growth to maintain or enhance crown form.
