1. Silver Birch (TPO-20519) dead - Fell. 2. Pine (TPO-01/01091/HDC) - Crown lift and removal of larger limb overhanging conservatory and dead wood Concerns for glass conservatory beneath - concern for risk of injury to occupants. Reason for not replanting new tree - too close to adjoining properties/fence line/ group of trees within small area. (20519)

There are a number of trees behind our fence line which is a public footpath at the top of number 12 Sunnybank road BB4 4PF. The public footpath is total overgrown, neglected and unusable. These trees are now so overgrown they are extensively encroaching our garden over the boundary line. Once they grow leaves back in spring they will be completely over our conservatory and garden. We have spent thousands on sorting the garden out and these trees are damaging the garden and if left much longer will damage our conservatory. They are also damaging our fence which is now so damp and rotting from the trees we will have to get a whole new fence.We would like to trim back the overhanging branches so this doesn?t happen. We do not want to cut down the trees or get rid of them we just want to trim back so they are not overhanging and ruining our garden etc. we are concerned if left this may invalidate our house insurance as you should not have a tree overhanging our property. We want to reduce the crown span of the trees to provide a clearance from our property boundary.

1 x Liquidambar (Blue dot on sketch plan) and 1 x Maple (Red dot on sketch plan) - Dismantle / Fell to near ground level. Liquidambar is too close to the conservatory. Maple is on the fence line close to the drive entrance (roots already disrupting the drive edge). Standing in Woodland W1 of Tree Preservation Order

Crown lift over fence by 4m, cutting back of branches overhanging the neighbouring garden by 2m of an Oak tree, cutting back of branches of an Oak tree by 3m from the conservatory and crown reduction by 2m of a Maple tree protected by Tree Preservation Order no. 124

1 - Remove epicormic regrowth from trunk of one English Oak (Quercus robor) up to canopy break at 7m to clear garage. This work is historic. 2 - Prune back neighbours Hazel, Laurel, Sweet Chestnut and Douglas fir to the boundary fence and up to 8m and clear roof and conservatory by 3m. Lift low branches to 4m from ground level from one small Copper Beech and small multi stemmed Holm Oaks near clients hot tub. 3a - Fell to 100mm above ground level one Laurel leaning into garden at base of the mature Copper Beech (Fagus sylvatica 'Atropurpurea). 3b - Carefully remove as much root bole as possible, without causing damage to surrounding objects tree roots etc, by stump grinding to a depth of 150mm below ground level, no lateral roots will be removed unless specified. 4a - Fell to 100mm above ground level one Mountain Ash (Sorbus aucuparia) in front of children's play equipment to allow the area to be redeveloped. 4b - Remove as much root bole as possible, without causing damage to surrounding objects by stump grinding to a depth of 200mm below ground level, no lateral roots will be removed unless specified, all grindings to be left on site.

Horse Chestnut (T2). Proposal is for felling of the tree. Replant with one tree of more limited growth\easier maintenance, from the maple family, in similar position and likely maintain at half the height, that would provide higher amenity level to the community. Reasons for proposal- Roots causing damage to my close-by patio, through cracks to patio surround and lifting of slabs. Large roots are also exposed on the surface and higher than ground level. I have a close-by conservatory and this could be affected by subsidence if work is not carried out, - Branches spread out into the path of traffic on the Wood End road, and hit passing vehicle,branches spread into electricity and telephone lines of my property, year on year damage to our fence which borders the property, and so the fence has had to be cut to allow the branches to spread through onto the road. - Low amenity value, especially as we have other larger trees sitting close by on the same fence line. But partly due to the type and look of the tree, considering it has leaf decay throughout the summer months from the prevalence of the insects, so it looks unsightly even when in 'bloom'. It does not provide value to the community. - Excessive shading of garden, and its soaking up of moisture from the soil, results in an inability to grow lawn and garden borders in that area.

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.

(1) Copper Weeping Beech - Crown raise to approximately 6.0m, Reduce the crown spread over the garden to leave it no more than approximately 5.0m out from the boundary fence. T(2) Conifer and Purple Plum next door adjacent to the conservatory cut back to the fence line all the way up.

Reduce branch of large Ash tree hanging above conservatory by approximately 2.5 meters to the level of boundary fence.
