Description

T1 Copper Beech - Reduce extended lateral limbs on the eastern side of the canopy by up to 1.5m to suitable growth points, maintaining a natural crownform in accordance with BS3998.The eastern side of the canopy has extended towards the neighbouring property, resulting in increased encroachment. The proposed reduction will providereasonable clearance from the property boundary, maintain the tree?s overall shape and balance, and help manage future encroachment whilst retaining theamenity value of the tree.T2 Lime - Remove southern basal stem/sucker to ground level.A secondary stem has developed from the base of the tree and is growing towards the neighbouring property at an unfavourable angle due to suppression from the main canopy. Removal of this stem will prevent further encroachment, improve the form of the retained tree, and reduce future management requirements.T3 Ash - Re-pollard to the previous pollard points at approximately 2m above ground level.The tree has been historically managed as a pollard, with established pollard points located at approximately 2m above ground level. Cavities are present within the historic pollard heads, and significant regrowth has developed from these points. Re-pollarding is recommended to reduce loading onthe historic pollard heads and associated areas of decay, thereby reducing the risk of structural failure and prolonging the safe retention of the tree. Thecurrent regrowth also extends towards nearby overhead lines, and the proposed works will provide appropriate clearance whilst maintaining the tree in itstraditional pollard form.G1 Group of 5 Yew TreesCrown raise to approximately 3m above ground level on the northern side and reduce the northern side of the group by up to 2.5m to suitable growth points.Reduce extended lateral branches overhanging the access driveway from the eastern side of the first yew tree by up to 2.5m. The proposed works are to manage encroachment into the garden and over the
