Fell T1 Common Beech (Fagus Sylvatica) to ground level - T1 has Meripilus at the base and is in a high risk area. Tree is on the edge of the property with a target zone of neighbouring house, customers house and a car park for multiple flats which is in constant use.

South Ridge Middle Lincombe Road Torquay TQ1 2NE
Tree 2 Monterey pine - Remove. Reasons (see attached 2 reports) The relationship between the tree and hard surfacing in the neighbouring property to the east is poor. Attempts to reduce the nuisance by re-surfacing have been carried out and have now become degraded and failed - incremental growth from the primary tree roots recorded is clearly damaging the surface. Root pruning options have been explored and have concluded that removal of the existing large diameter primary roots will lead to unacceptable negative impacts and structural instability. The declining physiological condition of the tree limits options for management. Any significant root pruning is likely to accelerate the spiral of decline of the tree. Dominic Scanlon has made contact with the Tree Officer Oliver Bennett to discuss the above.
