T1 - English Oak - a. Crown Lift to provide 6 metres clearance from ground level, removing secondary growth only. b. Crown reduction of English Oak. 25-30m high. Spread - 25m - Reduce crown height by 1.5 - 2m and reduce lateral spread 2-2.5m to suitable re growth point, to clear conservatory roof. The tree has become large with a wide spread, overhanging the conservatory and house. The tree has had previous branch failure on the West Side. The work is proposed to reduce the tree from over the dwelling, and reduce the mechanical weight to reduce the risk of further branch failure. Crown lift to remove the dropping branches over the patio and garden, to allow more light to the down stairs windows. T2 - Scots Pine - Fell - The tree stands in the Cherry Laurel hedge in the rear garden. The tree is leaning towards the NE.

Reduce height by 1-2m as appropriate and feasible to limit root spread to foundations. Final height of this tree once works have been carried out 10m. London Plane (T6) thin crown variously up to 15% of leaf area where branches are within 5m of domestic garage and windows to improve natural light to the garden and to the greenhouse in the garden of adjoining property (No.10) Reduce height by 3-4m as appropriate and feasible to limit root spread to foundations.
