  Chestnut Tree on Northfields Lane. Tree T1 on sketch. Works requested: - Crown reduction by approximately 3 metres in height and 3 metres in lateral spread, resulting in a final height of around 14.92 metres (current height = approx. 17.92metres) and a final spread of around 11.66 metres (current spread = approx. 14.66 metres). - Crown thinning of up to 20%, evenly throughout the canopy, to reduce wind resistance and improve light penetration. - Selective pruning of long/heavy limbs to reduce weight and risk of branch failure, particularly on limbs overhanging public pathway, road and neighbouring property. - Removal of all significant deadwood throughout the crown in the interests of public safety. - All pruning cuts to be made back to suitable growth points to maintain the tree?s natural shape and structure. Reason for works: - A large limb (3 metres+) has recently broken from near the top of the tree, demonstrating the risk of further branch failure. I've attached photos of this. - The tree stands adjacent to, with limbs overhanging, public road, public footpath, my pathway and driveway to house, and neighbouring garden (there are young children who play in the garden) where falling branches could cause serious injury or damage. - The proposed works are intended to reduce the likelihood of future branch failures, while preserving the health and amenity value of the tree. This work would be carried out by an Arboricultural Association-approved contractor in accordance with BS3998:2010 Tree Work ? Recommendations.
