Manor House Sutton Park Sutton Green Guildford Surrey GU4 7QL
1 : Willow - Fell to ground level and eco plug stump - The tree has been planted within close proximity to the adjacent Prunus, this is now dominating the smaller Prunus and directing its growth towards the road. Removal of the Willow would allow formative Pruning of the Prunus to be carried out allowing it to become a feature of the main drive through Sutton Park. 2 : Willow - Fell to ground level - Standing dead tree. 3 : Group of Willows - Reduce overhanging limbs of Manor House grounds by 2 - 3 meters back to appropriate growth points. This group runs the length of the South Boundary, these trees have not been pruned or managed throughout their life span causing them to have grown very tall and have very long limbs. Reducing these limbs within striking distance of the boundary would reduce the chance of failure and remove part of the dominance these trees create on this boundary. (Works within Sutton Park - Conservation Areas).
