Large sycamore tree right in front of the house next to fence bordering Elmsdown. The tree has outgrown its location despite previous pollarding and now needs felling. The tree encroaches on neighbours property and blocks all light to both houses when in full leaf. We intend to landscape the front garden and will replace with more suitable decorative trees.

Tree A - Silver Birch - removal of tree required as tree surgeon has confirmed that it is rotting from the top down due and will pose a danger if not removed. With young children, we do not want a fatality. HAR/CA21. Tree B (Fern) and Bush C (Holly) - we have recently received planning to extend the dwelling and as part of this work, we would like to landscape the garden. The fern and holly bush take up c.14 feet at the back of the garden and we are looking to remove these but replace them with new trees. The trees would be replaced with pleached holly trees (Nellie Stevens type). The fence is also rotten behind and will need replacing. The large Eucalyptus tree adjacent to the silver birch would remain but the crown reduced slightly as it is very high. A sketch idea of how the garden would look eventually is also included.

10 year consent to crown lift an avenue of mixed broadleaved trees which were planted approximately 20 years ago. This avenue was planted along the ha ha wall, perpendicular to Bell Gate Drive which is the main entrance to Stowe landscape Gardens. The sensitive crown lifting of these trees, to a maximum height of 3 metres, will open up views of the newly restored Bell Gate Lodge to our visitors.

Tree group 1: mixed species along rear boundary of property, Hazel, Holly, Elder and dead hawthorn: Safely remove all trees in group and grind out remaining stumps in prep for landscaping and building of retaining wall. Trees are small and of little amenity value. HAR/CA34.

ELLERKER CONSERVATION AREA - Fell 1no Silver Birch tree (T1) to allow for re-landscaping

1. Area of woodland i have outlined in maps contains many mature and fantastic trees- we would like to remove all holly and laurel which vary in size but are on average around the middle canopy level they have started to take over the woodland area over the years so hopefully by removing them we can create a better look and to give space to the more mature trees like the yews, beeches and oaks. 2.We would also like to remove dead trees and leave for habitat, also cleaning up any already fallen tree again for habitat. 3. Finally any large areas of nettles and brambles we would like to flail down to open this woodland up and hopefully gets some ridding tracks clear for horse riding and general use of this lovely woodland. I understand this is brief but im happy to organise a meeting with the tree officer to go over and explain what we want to do and achieve. Few comments from Vanessa herself- I have inherited an area of woodland at Whaddon Hall from my late husband, who lived at the adjoining Chase House until we married and had very happy memories of this landscape. I have met the Forestry Commission on site to take its advice on care of the ten trees with TPOs and the starting point is control of surrounding ground cover - specifically invasive levels of laurel bushes (to be removed) and hollies (to be controlled). I have engaged a specialist contractor for these works - Stanton Tree Care - and seek permission to proceed.?

Fell 1 no. Sycamore (T1) & Yew (T2) and replace in order to open up the garden to light infiltration and for new landscape design.
