T1 Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) Proposed Works: Reduce the crown by approximately 3???4 metres, pruning back to the previous pollard points to establish a cyclical pollarding regime. Remove any dead, damaged or weakly attached branches encountered during the works and reshape the crown to maintain a balanced framework, all in accordance with BS3998:2010 ??? Tree Work ??? Recommendations. Arboricultural Justification The Ash has been previously pollarded and has now produced substantial regrowth beyond the previous pruning points. The tree has become disproportionately large for its confined location, resulting in excessive shading to neighbouring properties and gardens whilst increasing the mechanical loading on the historic pollard unions. Returning the tree to the previous pollard points represents appropriate cyclical management and is consistent with its established pruning history. The reduction will reduce end weight acting upon the pollard heads, lessen the likelihood of branch failure, and maintain the tree at a size more appropriate for its surroundings. The proposed works will also significantly improve natural light penetration to neighbouring properties whilst preserving the tree's amenity value and extending its safe useful life through continued pollard management. The works are considered reasonable, proportionate and represent good arboricultural practice.

5 Helena Close SW19 6BF

Tree T1. Located in the communal rear garden of Helena Close, as marked on the sketch plan Plan 01 attached. Proposed works: Remove major deadwood throughout the crown. Reduce end weight on overextended lateral limbs by up to 10 metres, cutting back to suitable growth points. Crown thin by no more than 20 to 25 per cent to reduce wind loading. All works to be carried out in accordance with BS 3998:2010. Understood, and that is a legitimate and important point to make, since a garden in regular use by children is exactly the kind of target area that strengthens a safety case. Here is the reasons paragraph rewritten to put that front and centre, while keeping it credible rather than alarmist, which is what carries weight with a tree officer. Replace the reasons section with this: Reasons for the works: The tree carries significant deadwood and excess end weight on several overextended lateral limbs. These limbs extend directly over a communal garden that is in daily use by residents and children, who play in the space beneath the canopy. There is a real concern that a deadwood or overloaded limb could fail and fall into an area occupied by young children. The proposed works are intended to reduce this risk of limb failure and to maintain the health and structural integrity of the tree, while retaining its amenity value. No reduction in height is proposed and no felling is involved, so replacement planting is not applicable.

A two-trunk Common Holly tree stands at the southern corner of our property, 12 Briar Walk, neighbouring 14 Briar Walk (see tree T1 in attached sketch plan). The tree has an extensive and vigorous root system above ground (see photo), while the root system below ground appears to be causing damage to the dividing garden wall between 12 Briar Walk and 14 Briar Walk (see photos showing cracks). Our neighbours at 14 Briar Walk are concerned about the potential for further damage to the dividing wall and have asked us to remove the tree. We plan to employ professional tree surgeons to cut down the tree and minimise or prevent future growth of the root system. We have no plans to repalace the tree.

The psychology is good with a good amount of foliage throughout the tree. The tree shows historical phototropic growth with leaning towards the property on the west and south with all branch growth in this direction. This would indicate growing with completion with large trees to the north. Evidence of street trees which has been removed and a newly planted Lime in its place and an existing street tree, Oak Quercus which has been lopped and topped at 8 meters. There are wounds on the main stem; Wound 1 on the south side at 0.5 meter Wound 2 on the west side at 1 meter Wound 3 on the South west side. Elongated with server resin bleeding. With reactionary growth on either side. Wound 4 ??? A large open wound (Due to historical poor branch removal) located at 5 meters. The wound has a width of 400mm and a height of 580mm. The diameter of the wound 540mm with a depth of the cavity at the same point 400mm. Wound 5- elongated open wound to the south side at 6.2 meters. Width of wound is 170mm and height of 800mm. There is reactionary wood around the wound. Both visual and actual evidence of animal activity. Whilst carrying out the inspection 3 squirrels vacated from the lowest hole on wound 4 and from the hole in wound 5 indicating that the whole section is hollow. Wound 6- There are 5 branches historically removed with good reactive growth. Due to the tree being hollow with loss of live, active wood on the compression side, where the conifers would support themselves.

T1 Poplar: Carry out a controlled and proportionate reduction of regrowth arising from established historic pollard points. Works to comprise: Reduction of all secondary regrowth to leave approximately 2 to 3 metres of extension growth from the existing pollard heads Retention of the full historic pollard framework and all primary structural limbs Selective thinning of congested regrowth where necessary to maintain an even and stable crown structure Removal of dead, dying, damaged or crossing branches where present All pruning cuts to be undertaken to suitable growth points in strict accordance with BS3998:2010 Tree Work Recommendations, avoiding the creation of large diameter wounds and preserving the integrity of the existing pollard heads. No cutting back to, or beyond, the established pollard points is proposed. Arboricultural Justification The subject tree exhibits clear evidence of historic pollarding, with established pollard heads and cyclical regrowth typical of managed Poplar species. The proposed works represent: Routine cyclical management of a previously pollarded tree A measured and sustainable reduction consistent with accepted arboricultural practice A necessary intervention to prevent excessive extension growth, reduce end weight, and maintain structural integrity The specification has been carefully limited to ensure: No over pruning or structural harm Preservation of long term tree health and vitality Retention of amenity value within the Conservation Area Avoidance of large pruning wounds which could accelerate decay Constraints and Limitations: Works will not involve cutting to boundary lines where this would require excessive or indiscriminate pruning Works will not exceed 30 percent of recent regrowth Works will not alter the fundamental structure, height or character of the tree Any more severe reduction, including cutting back to or beyond pollard points or to boundary limits, would: Be contrary to BS3998 best practice Introduce a high risk
