  Applicants references: T1 and T2 Fraxinus excelsior - common ash: Two established and mature trees located in the car -park on the boundary with Darl Oast; Despite some concerns, I am not convinced that these trees have ADB, if they do, it is at a very early stage and in itself at this time not of concern. However, there are many other ash locally that do have ADB, some in Darl Oast garden. There are some remedial works that should be carried out on these trees, as they are a little neglected and have many over-extended branches (over-long), these can be sites of failure due to the excessive mass, leverage places on the unions (forks). There is also a considerable amount of ivy present in the crowns, this make visual inspection difficult and adds extra mass/volume to the trees, which is not advisable in a public setting. Reduce the crown of the tree by the selective removal of between 3-4 metres from the branch tips depending on the opportunities for cutting back to suitable live growth in each instance. At this time I would recommend that the ivy is severed at the base of the trees leaving a 1m band clear of ivy. T1 Height reduced from 15m to 11-12m & radial spread from 9m to 5-6m (on the longest over extended branches), T2 Height reduced from 14m to 10-11 & radial spread from 8m to 4-5m (on the longest over extended branches), This is in practice a reduction of leaf mass of approx. 25%. This figure is important as it is within the recommended guidelines stated by BS 3998(2010) "Recommendations for tree work", T3 Corylus avelana - hazel: Large example, on the boundary of the car park and Darl Oast; remove deadwood from the crown and re-coppice as should be done on a cyclical basis
