    Proposed works to trees within the Sutton Scotney Conservation Area My wife and I own St Anne's, a house on Stockbridge Road in Sutton Scotney. We purchased the house 10 years ago and since the last tree works undertaken at the property the row of Corsican Pines is causing some concern and requires attention. The trees are shown on the plan enclosed with this letter labelled T1 to T6. The type of tree, reason for action and requested action are set out below: T1, T2, T4, T5 & T6: Corsican Pine - Action: Lightly lift and remove deadwood. Reason: The trees have not been pruned since the 1993 application and require attention. Regularly large dead branches fall to the ground and have the potential to damage property and endanger people on the ground. Branches now overhang St Anne's, Egg Day Children's Nursery and the Sutton Manor retirement home. It is the intention to prune over hanging branches and remove deadwood from the trees. T3: Corsican Pine - Action: Fell. Reason: This tree is significantly overhanging the Egg Day Nursery and large branches have fallen both into the grounds of St Anne's and Egg Day Nursery where children play daily. Branches have recently damaged vehicles parked underneath the tree and it is considered a hazard to the children's play area. The option of heavily pruning the tree to minimise its danger to nursery children and property will render the amenity value of the tree negligible. After discussion with tree specialists and an arborist our intention is to fell the tree, with your permission, as soon as reasonably practicable. We are therefore giving you notice of these intended works, so that you can inspect the trees, and consider whether you agree the action is appropriate. I would be happy to discuss this with you or your inspector. Please feel ...
