My client is looking to take some weight of a sycamore tree ( T1 ) the tree is leaning towards a fairly busy road I have suggested that we carry out a 15% radial crown reduction. Bring the cuts back to 2nd growth points this will be a sufficient amount of growth/weight to help with the lean whilst keeping the tree healthy. There is a old sycamore coppice ( G1 ) which is over crowded and not letting in much light for the garden underneath to strive. I have suggested removing any dead wood within the crown, a 15% radial crown reduction bringing the cuts back to 2nd growth points and removing the 2nd leader to open up for more sun light.

TPO Justification : Trees have historically been pollarded and more recently crown reduced. Returning the trees back to a cyclical pollarding regime is a reasonable approach to tree management for holm oak trees within this age group. Short-term there would be a loss of amenity but long-term the pollarding regime will ensure canopy cover is retained by: preventing trees from out-growing there immediate environment and retaining a green feature providing amenity. There is argument that the pollarding regime has lapsed and therefore a reduction back to the previous cut points would be more appropriate; we would appreciate being advised if the Tree Officer feels this is more appropriate. The proposed tree works are as follows: G1 - 20 x Holm oaks running adjacent with Lincombe Drive. To Pollard back to primary pollard points with final cuts made at approximately 1.5 metres above ground level metres from ground level. Initiate a well-balanced candelabra framework for future branch structure to establish. All works carried out to BS 3998:2010 Tree Works Recommendations G2 - Mixed species trees located at the bottom of garden. Crown reduce the height only from 15 metres back to approximately 13 metres from the branch tips back to previous pruning points, while retaining the main framework & shape of the crown & therefore a high proportion of the foliage bearing structure. All pruning cuts to be made at suitable growth points. All works carried out to BS 3998:2010 Tree Works Recommendations G3 - Mixed species trees located at the side boundary of the garden. Crown reduce the height only from approximately 14 metres to approximately 11 metres from the branch tips back to previous pruning points, while retaining the main framework & shape of the crown & therefore a high proportion of the foliage bearing structure. All pruning cuts to be made at suitable growth points. All works carried out to BS 3998:2010 Tree Works Recommendation
