  TPO Application Summary Meadfoot Lodge, Meadfoot Sea Road, Torquay Proposed Tree Works Summary This application seeks consent to undertake essential arboricultural works identified during a Quantified Tree Risk Assessment undertaken at Meadfoot Lodge, Meadfoot Sea Road, Torquay. The proposed works are necessary to mitigate foreseeable risks arising from structural defects, decay and branch failure potential whilst retaining the long-term amenity value of the trees wherever practicable. T001 Holm Oak (Quercus ilex) Current crown radius: 14m (approximate crown spread 28m). The tree exhibits Ganoderma-associated basal dysfunction and extended lateral growth. It is proposed to reduce the extended lateral limbs by approximately 2-3m, resulting in a post-pruning crown radius of approximately 11-12m (crown spread 22-24m), together with the removal of deadwood. These works will reduce end-weight loading and improve structural stability whilst retaining the tree's significant landscape contribution. T002 - Monterey Cypress (Cupressus macrocarpa Current crown radius: 8m (approximate crown spread 16m). The tree contains a structurally weak co-dominant stem with included bark overhanging the adjacent highway. Consent is sought to remove the defective stem only. The retained stem will continue to provide screening and amenity value, with the overall crown spread reduced proportionately following removal of the defective leader. T003 - Please accept this as the revised specification: Selectively reduce the crown by 1-2 metres to leave a radial spread of approximately 8 metres, pruning to suitable growth points to retain a natural, balanced and symmetrical crown while maintaining the tree's natural character. T004 - The tree survey identifies an included union within the main stem of the tree. This is the defect referred to in the survey, and the recommended works relate to managing the associated risk.
