T1 Cypress tree closest to rear boundary, Fell. tree is causing excessive shading to both neighbouring properties causing an ongoing dispute. Tree has been previously 'topped' and has also been previously approved for removal although, clearly, this work wasn't carried out. T2 Cypress tree, Fell part of group causing excessive shading T3 Cypress tree, Fell closest to garage, tree causing excessive shading to neighbouring property and has a number of broken limbs, as shown in pictures, from wind damage. T4 Alder tree, Reduce height from around 10 meters to 8 meters and the trees width from 7 meters to between 3.5 and 4 meters supressed by Cypress (T3) once trees are removed the alder will appear misshapen and one sided. To alleviate stress on the tree and susceptibility to possible wind damage due to its new exposure we wish to reduce the crown of the alder. to promote a flowing line and will be cut back to suitable secondary growth.

The location of the Oak tree is shown in Appendix 1 and is approximately 2m north of the applicants property boundary. There is significant southerly lateral spread of the crown which is affecting the amenity of both the garden and adjacent structures. Of particular concern is the area of the crown above the garage/ garden room; the latter is frequently occupied during the year. The proposed works are to reduce the lateral spread over the garden from the neighbours oak tree by 3m and 4m towards the garage/garden room to leave 3.5m at base.

Chestnut (T2)- Reduce canopy spread to fence boundary. Canopy spread is large and conkers dropping from the branches have caused damage to conservatory roof (photos attached). Also crack to garage floor which is believed to be from roots of trees. Sycamore (T1) - Reduce canopy spread to fence boundary. Overhanging drive.
