TPO No 12 1975, Works to Beech tree Ref 416, located in NW corner of allotment strip , reduce encroaching north west crown of tree towards residential property by approx. 2.5-3m to ensure the branch tips are clear of property by at least 3m

1. T1 Mature twin stem Oak - 1.5m - 2m reduction of the canopy to reduce forces on the union at the base, install Cobra brace to add additional support to stems and reduce stress at union. Evidence of a poor union at base no evidence of water running out of this union, two wound at base also, but with evidence of good compartmentalising. Canopy growth seems healthy, with good growth and healthy buds. 2. T2 Mature Poplar - Fell Hole in stem at approximately 7ft in height. The cavity depth is approximately 50% of stem diameter. Healthy wood all around stem at this point. Tree has slight lean towards residential property and is with striking distance. Tree has additional weight due prolific Mistletoe throughout canopy,

Weeping Willow T1 as shown on attached plan (TPO Tree Ident Number unknown) Reduce canopy to allow access for pilling rig to install the retaining wall required for the junction improvement works approved as part of the approved 470 home residential Development known as Whitford Green, Whitford Road, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire We have undertaken air-spade site investigations to determine extent of root growth and geotechnical site investigations have been undertaken to aid the design of the retaining wall. To minimalise the impact of the wall a king post system is to be utilised but it necessary to have three pile locations on the edge of the canopy of the weeping willow to allow access for the piling rig. (See Attached Plan) For the works near the willow tree the piling rig is to be located on the existing highway at a lower level to minimalise the impact and requirement for pruning. The exact extent of pruning will be agreed on site with the Bromsgrove Tree Officer, but from our site visit and the information currently available we would suggest at a reduction of up to 5 limbs by up to 2m of their overall length (6m) to the southern and eastern side of the tree. It should be noted that we are happy to either undertake an all round crown reduction of this tree, or to only prune the limbs that are required to allow access for the piling rig, whichever option is deemed most appropriate by the Bromsgrove tree officer. We would be happy to meet the Bromsgrove Tree Officer on site to discuss this TPO application during the consultation period. We would suggest that condition is attached that requires final approval for the extent of works by the Bromsgrove tree officer. The pruning would be undertaken following the guidance of the tree officer and follow the guidance within BS3998 (2012)

( Church side) Canopy adjacent to adjoining residential block ( Strawberry Star side): lateral reduction to provide a 2m clearance Branch overhanging pizza oven roof: lateral reduction and crown lift Retaining overall height and form (T2) Lime x 2 Canopy adjacent to church: lateral reduction to provide a 2m clearance Crown lift to retain height

We have five mature trees in our rear garden that need attention. They are four sycamore trees and one coniifer. Two of these trees have TPO's. The two sycamore trees with TPO's (T88 and T87) include one purple sycamore. I want to reduce the height of all of them by 1-2 metres and 'cone' them in shape. They are mature and are currently about 16-18 metres in height. They overhang the drive entrance to Rottingdeam playground and need to be kept safe as the drive is used constantly by cars, council vehicles and pedestrians. Some branches reach over the gardens of an adjacent residential drive - the Rotyngs.
