Oak (T1) and (T2) - Crown reduction of up to 1 metre to address structural imbalance and reduce the risk of further branch failure, while maintaining the natural form and primary structural framework with an approximate final crown spread of approximately 6-7 metres. Reduction cuts will be made at suitable lateral growth points. All pruning wounds will not exceed 50mm in diameter. Crown Spread Measurement - The stated final crown spread of approximately 6 to7 metres refers to the radial spread, measured from the stem to the outermost extent of the crown in each direction. This interpretation is consistent with BS 3998 2010, Clause 3.6 and Clause 7.7.3 which recommend specifying crown dimensions in terms of radial spread to ensure clarity and consistency in pruning specifications. Tree Height - No reduction in overall tree height is proposed. The works are limited to lateral crown reduction to address structural imbalance. Both specimens exhibit structural imbalances, particularly asymmetric crown development. This has contributed to recent branch failure on T1, indicating a potential hazard to property and public safety. No signs of severe pathogen presence were observed, but mechanical stress and crown asymmetry were noted. The site is primarily urban and industrial, surrounded by a vehicle yard and a building complex. The area is notably busy, with many people engaged in work. Elm (T3) - Fell, dead specimen poses now an elevated risk.

T001 - 1x Holly Tree Crown lift on the roadside by removing three branches overhanging the carriageway, pruning back to the main stem to achieve highway regulation clearance of 5.60 metres from road level. Reduce the remaining canopy of the tree as follows: Reduce the height of the tree by approximately 2 m, leaving a final overall height of approximately 7 m. Reduce the radial crown spread by approximately 1.5 m, leaving a final radial spread of 5.5 m at all compass points. All works shall retain the tree's main framework and natural form, maintaining a high proportion of the foliage-bearing structure. All final pruning cuts shall be made at suitable growth points in accordance with BS 3998:2010 Tree Work ? Recommendations. Individual pruning wounds shall not exceed 40 mm in diameter. Justification: The proposed works are intended to provide adequate statutory highway clearance in accordance with Section 154 of the Highways Act 1980 and to prevent low lateral branches from obstructing the carriageway. The crown reduction is required to contain the overall size and spread of the tree within its constrained roadside setting, mitigating the risk of branch failure and limiting future encroachment into the garden area. The works are of a sympathetic and proportional nature, designed to maintain the long-term health, form, and amenity value of the tree while ensuring compliance with highway safety regulations. The proposed pruning is consistent with good arboricultural practice and will not adversely affect the tree's physiological condition or visual contribution to the local landscape or conservation area.

TPO Ref: 2004.012 Applying for works on T4 Pine (Pinus radiata), T5 Holm Oak (Quercus ilex) and T6 Pine Customer wants to apply to crown raise T4 - Pine (Pinus radiata) by roughly 4 metres from ground level with the aim to improve the view from the house and to install a new and safe fence along the cliff edge in the future. The beginning of T4's crown is at roughly 3 metres from the ground. Customer wants to apply to crown raise T5 - Holm Oak (Quercus ilex) by roughly 5 metres from ground level to improve the view from the house. This tree is hanging over a public beech and the customer is worried about the weight of the tree becoming too much as the cliff its sat on continues to erode over the years from the impact of the sea. Customer also has the intention of installing a fence on the boundary to prevent public who are visiting the house walking too close to the cliff edge. Customer wants to apply to crown raise T6 - Pine (Pinus radiata) by roughly 4 metres from ground level. The beginning of T6's canopy consists of dead or crossing branches. The customer would like to do this to improve the view from the house and to also create space to install a fence on the cliff edge to prevent public who are visiting the house walking too close to the cliff edge.
