  Tree Reference: T1 (Horse Chestnut) Proposed Works: Primary Proposal (Option 1): Crown reduction of 3m from the height and radial spread to suitable pruning points. The finished dimensions will be approximately 9m in height and 6m in radial spread. Alternative Proposal (Option 2 ): Pollard to a height of approximately 6m to establish a cyclical maintenance framework. All works to be carried out in accordance with BS 3998:2010 (Recommendations for Tree Work) The proposed works to T1 (Horse Chestnut) are necessary to mitigate health and safety risks at the entrance to a residential car parking area. The tree currently overhangs the primary vehicle and pedestrian access point, as well as several designated parking bays Safety and Access: The crown reduction or pollard is required to reduce the risk of limb failure and falling debris (conkers and deadwood) onto residents and vehicles in this high-traffic zone. Long-term Management: Option 1(Crown Reduction) aims to balance the tree's health and visual amenity with the practical constraints of its location. Option 2 (Pollarding to 6m) is proposed to initiate a sustainable cyclical maintenance plan. This would allow the tree to be retained in its urban environment at a size compatible with its proximity to residential infrastructure.
