Planning application

11 Westmorland Drive Camberley Surrey GU15 1EW

Split decision Surrey Heath TWA/21/0130 Tree Works Application

Works: Trees

Part of this application was approved and part refused. The decision notice on the council portal sets out which is which.

Proposal

Following the refusal to have our Chestnut tree removed we would like to ask your permission to have the lower branches removed on both chestnut trees situated at the back of the garden. In addition we would also like to reduce the height of the one on the left so that it is in line with the one on the right. These trees haven't had any maintenance in years therefore we feel they would benefit from this work and it would also increase the amount sunlight into our garden. It is to be noted that work won't be carried out until our building work is complete

G16 - conifers - remove 2 x dead stems. T17 and T18 is to carry out a thorough dead wood of both trees, and conduct an aerial inspection of the trees structures to identify potential hazzards. If we discover any issues, for example broken limbs, rot pockets that are substantial (over 30% into a limb or union), excessively rubbing branches that have resulted in the lower branch having the cambium rubbed back to more than 20%, we would request that we remove these items as a matter of safety. We would also ask that we bring any over extending lateral branches back to the natural canopy line, in an attempt to prevent future limb failure.
