  Oak Tree 9 (T9) as shown on page 21 of the attached arborist report. The report states that 'T9, is in very poor condition, by way of both basal decay and the effects of truncation caused by an historic topping operation' [Page 15]. 'Tree 9 is in a poor condition with a significantly reduced safe useful life expectancy. It should be inspected annually but will need to be removed sooner rather than later, within five years' [Page 16]. Therefore, we are seeking permission to fell the tree and replace with an English Oak in the same location.

  General maintenance of 9 oak trees (T1-T8 and T10) by way of crown reduction of up to 30%, removal of deadwood (some of which has started to fall) and lift of crown height of 10m in respect of each of the 9 oak trees. Plus removal of a beech tree (X1) adjacent to T1. Advice sought from arborist in respect of all proposed works. To note re removal of the beech tree (X1) this is suggested on the basis the tree could impinge the health of T1. Re T8, part of the crown of this tree is intertwined with the crown of our neighbour's oak at No 15 Shire Lane which is lopsided (photo included). To reduce the 9 Oak trees by - it is for a 2m reduction in the crown of each tree in addition to the other works described
