    T1 - x1 Holm Oak (Quercus ilex) Proposed works: Re-pollard the tree to approximately 6 metres above ground level, being approximately 3 metres above the previous historic pollard points. The tree is a previously managed pollard which has lapsed, resulting in elongated regrowth with increased end-weight. Re-instating the pollard is appropriate cyclical management. The current canopy contributes to excessive shading and loss of light to the adjacent dwelling and garden areas, negatively affecting residential amenity. Significant leaf debris and organic matter from the canopy is accumulating on the house and garage roofs, leading to persistent damp conditions and the development of algae/green growth, increasing maintenance requirements and risk of roof deterioration. The proposed height retains the tree in a sustainable, manageable form, preserving its long-term health and contribution to local amenity. T2 - x1 Lucombe Oak (Quercus - hispanica -Lucombeana?) Proposed works: Remove epicormic growth from the main stem up to the crown break, to a height of approximately 5.5 metres. Epicormic growth is dense and visually intrusive, detracting from the tree?s natural form and the amenity of the site. Removal will improve light penetration to the property and surrounding areas without affecting the main crown structure. Epicormic shoots can form weakly attached growth; removal improves structural clarity and long-term tree management. The works are minor, selective, and will not adversely affect the tree's overall health or amenity value.

    1 x Holm Oak which is situated on the northern aspect of number 9 Pilmuir Avenue. Re-pollard to previous pollard points at approximately 6 metres above ground level. All arising material shall be removed from site and returned to our premises for recycling. Justification: 1. Cyclical Maintenance: As stated in BS3998 (Section 7.10)., once pollarding is initiated, it should be maintained by cutting new branches on a regular cycle. The frequency of re-pollarding depends on factors like species and site management. This tree's new growth is around 4 metres long therefore in line with the management objectives of the site we are proposing to re-pollard, to manage its size and maintain the intended structure at 6 metres above ground level. 2. Selective Cutting to Avoid Decay: BS3998 emphasises that during each cycle of pollarding, selective pruning is necessary to maintain some live branch material. To achieve this we will not be cutting back past knuckles but to just above to retain some functional material to establish new growth and prevent the spread of long term decay. Summary: The pollarding will reduce the trees overall height from 10 metres to 6 metres above ground level by removing the new growth of 4 metres to the previous pollard points. These sections provide a solid basis for re-pollarding the tree in line with recommendations set out within BS3998, ensuring the health and structural integrity of the Holm Oak in the short to long-term.
