  T1 - Norway Maple T1 - Norway Maple 1. The following documents are attached. 2. Schedule of works to be carried out by Michael Harvey Cert Arb RFS or Arbocare Ltd (in brief Norway Maple to be dismantled from the top down and stump grinding to a depth of 20 cms to be carried out. 3. email from tree's owner containing permission for the tree to be removed. 4. Photo of Norway Maple to be removed. The tree is currently 30-40 ft high - the crown was reduced in 2014, but has now grown to a greater height than before, causing overshadowing in my garden. In 2016 the leaves were covered in large black spots (some sort of disease or fungus?). Leaf drop and keys in the autumn are overwhelming in my small garden. Following a mild and wet winter, an unusually large germination rate of the keys themselves are a problem on their own. The tree is very close to White Cottage (6 metres), Church Lane Cottage and Fernhurst (approx 7.7 metres) with large roots very near the ground surface. I plan to replace the Maple with a smaller ornamental and/or evergreen tree. Remarks: Spec:

  1- TPO T25 - Norway Maple 2- TPO T38 - Ash The trees are mature and form part of the established planting around the property, providing visual interest and amenity value for guests, visitors and neighbouring areas. The proposed works are limited to pruning the branches closest to the building, by a maximum of 2 metres, to maintain an appropriate clearance. The intention is to retain the trees and their overall appearance and continue to preserve their contribution to the character and amenity of the site. We are not aware of any specific historical significance associated with the trees.

  The Copse House Foxcombe Road Boars Hill Oxford OX1 5DG

  Hazel There are approximately 10-15 multi-stemmed hazel trees in need of coppicing. Each will be reduced to 1-1.5 metres in height to allow healthy regrowth. Yew and Purple Plumb The purple plumb and yew trees will simply have 2-3 branches removed to raise the canopy to 4 metres to allow vehicular entrance to the property. All of these trees are within the woodland area or well within my boundary. Leylandii The branches overhanging the boundary fence along the 10-12 metre length of the growing raised beds will be trimmed back closer to the fence to allow light and rainfall to the raised beds.
