  Oak - fell. The reason for this work is that the tree is dying back in the upper canopy with Ganoderma sp fungi observed at the base of the tree. The tree is suppressed by T10 and as such is not considered to be of significant amenity value.

  T1733 - Oak - Fell. Cavaties are present at 3m agl on the western side of the main stem and 4m agl on the eastern side of the main stem. In addition a basal cavity is also present. It is concluded that the basal area is compromised due to the level of dysfunctional wood that is present. With the presence of the additional cavities on the main stem and that the tree is within faalling distance of the property the recommendation is to fell the tree. It is further proposed to undertake replacement planting.

  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.
