Description

T1 - Sycamore. Fell T2 - Beech. FellT3 - Oak. Target prune to reduce overhanging canopy above garden by 1-2mT4 - Oak. Target prune to reduce overhanging canopy above garden by 1-2m. Remove lowest limb which juts out below main canopy to left hand side as viewed from the house.T5 - Beech. No proposed work - tree included in sketch for reference.The garden is dominated by the two large oak trees which have been previously reduced and hence have a particularly dense canopy. The proposed minor pruning is intended to ease the oppressive feel of the trees above the garden - however slightly - whilst not stimulating vigorous regrowth. It can potentially be repeated periodically and would be completed using MEWP for access. T1 is a self-sown sycamore in the very corner of the garden. Due to its position at the outside and end of the row of trees, it is a poor form - very one-sided and the canopy projects almost entirely over the gardens behind on Syddal Green. These gardens have no access to the road from any point. The client would like to remove this tree in order to allow more afternoon light into their garden, before the sun disappears behind the oaks. It is also our opinion that it would be preferable to remove this tree whilst it is relatively young, as any future work will become increasingly difficult due to its extremely awkward location, as the tree gets larger. There is a beech tree adjacent to the sycamore - marked as T5 on the sketch plan - which is a much better form and is set further back from the gardens on Syddal Green - our suggestion would be that this tree would develop better in the long term without the sycamore and would form a natural and much improved replacement.T2 is a comparatively small beech located mostly within the canopy of T3. The owners of 3 Syddal Close would like to remove this tree to allow more light into their garden, again without interfering with the large oaks. TPO 117W.
