    Tree: T17 Copper beech, Fagus sylvatica Purpurea Location: [front of property on fence boundary between 57 & 57A Mersey Road, inboard of the brick garden wall, approx 3m from Mersey Road roadway] Proposed works: T17 copper beech carry out a 20% crown thin, removing selected small-diameter secondary and tertiary branches evenly throughout the crown. Undertake minor crown balancing* by selectively pruning any over-extended or disproportionately weighted lateral growth, with cuts made back to suitable branch unions. No topping or lopping. No significant reduction in overall height or spread. Retain the trees natural form and amenity value. Works to be carried out in accordance with BS 3998.:2010 Tree Work Recommendations. * The tree was highlighted on the attached 2016 Tree Report as having a crown imbalance. This imbalance has persisted in the 10 years since, and would now benefit from minor rebalancing work. Reason for works: To reduce crown density and allow improved filtered light and air movement through the canopy while retaining the tree?s natural form and contribution to the conservation area. The proposed 20% crown thin is proportionate, light-touch maintenance and avoids topping, lopping, crown reduction or significant alteration to the trees visual amenity. HAR/CA21, TPO 411W.

    Proposed work Proposed work to remove T3 from rear of 25 Priestnall Road Reason for proposed work: > T3 has tree has outgrown its environment to the extent that it is beginning to create severe, continuous, and unavoidable nuisance. It is leaning towards and encroaching over the top of neighbour's property (1 Sunnyfield Rd). There is a strong likelihood that it will begin to affect neighbour's property > Given there are multiple trees in a very small vicinity T4 (Holly), T5 (Holly) & T6 (Cherry) - all within a 3.5m radius, by removing T3 the remaining trees (T4, T5 & T6) will have better opportunity to establish and grow. > T3 is a Robinia, it is non-native, fast-growing & prone to brittle wood, structural failure, and invasive root systems. All of attributes render the positioning of this tree as hazardous to neighbouring building. Additionally it posses a split fork (2.3m) from ground and a 2nd (3.6m from ground) adding further risk to additional growth. Removal at this stage would mitigate any issues in the near future. As part of removal of T3 - it is proposed that a further tree will be planted within the boundary of 25 Priestnall Road as a replacement. HAR/CA21.
