2 Collaroy Glen Cold Ash Thatcham RG18 9PZ
Tree A - Cedar: Requesting crown reduction of up to 30%. The proposed finished measurements would be for the width of the tree to be 7m and height 12m. Branches are in close proximity to the roof of house and gutters which could be a potential risk of damage to the property, loss of light to one of the rooms in the property and general maintenance to ensure long term health and safety of the tree.

The Gables The Ridge Cold Ash Thatcham RG18 9HY
90% historically approved · decision due ~7 Dec
T1 - Wild Cherry: Fell to ground level Reason: T1 is a mature tree growing to the rear of the property. The trees two trunks lean towards the rear elevation of the property. Fungal fruiting bodies of Laetiporus sulphureus (Chicken of the Woods) are present at the base of the tree. The presence of decay at the base of the tree and the lean of the trunk towards the residential property means that T1 (Cherry) poses an unacceptable risk to property and can no longer be safely retained in this location.
