  T1 - Oak: Crown raise to approximately 4m above ground level by removing the lowest limbs back to source in order to give clearance and access, and improve aesthetics and light. Reduce crown by removing approximately 1-2m of branch length back to appropriate growth points to maintain size (see photo), mostly shortening significantly extended limbs back in line with crown average. Prune lower limbs on South side of the crown to appropriate growth points to ensure 2-3m clearance to the neighbour's roof. We would also like to give notice of the removal of the extensive major deadwood

  T1 is a healthy mature Oak growing close to the rear elevation of 18 Bluebell Drive. The structural condition and physiological health of the tree is good. T1 has previously been cut back to create adequate clearance to the property. The tree has responded well to the work and re-grown with 1.5-2m new growth from previous reduction points. Further works are recommended to reduce the lateral spread on the south side of the tree to create reasonable clearance to property. These are minor works. Pruning cuts will be kept small and the works will not be visible from a public view. The health and wider visual amenity value of the tree will not be harmed. Recommended Tree Works: Reduce lateral spread on southern half of tree only by 1.5-2m back to previous reduction points to create reasonable clearance to adjacent properties. Cuts will be graded into the adjacent crown to leave a sympathetic and natural-looking canopy shape (see photo 1); Reduce 1x pendulous low branch over garden of number 18 by approximately 2m back in line with surrounding canopy (see photo 2); Remove deadwood; Remove epicormic growth on the lower trunk to a height of 3m above ground level.
