Sycamore - Crown lift by removal of secondary branches only to provide 4 metres clearance over garden, Crown reduce 'bulging' side of tree back to general crown line (up to a maximum of 2 metres) and prune to provide 0.6 metres clearance form rugby club apparatus over boundary. Horse Chestnut - Crown lift in line with guttering on house (approx 4.5 metres), where drooping branches extend below the level of crown lifting they will be pruned back to next available and suitable pruning point as per BS 3998 (2010). Crown reduce on house side and neighbour's at 38 Windsor Gardens by no more than 2 metres, ensuring sufficient foliage is retained on the lowest primary lateral branches that extends towards the house at 37 Windsor Gardens.

HI, I am the current owner of Old Manor Cottage, 29 Baker Street Waddesdon which is an 1875 cottage with very shallow foundations on a clay ground so it is subject to instability. There are two large conifer trees at the front of my garden that as you face the property are to the right hand side of it. These trees are approximately 2 metres + higher than my property and are causing two issues. They caused historical subsidence in 2003 before I owned the property which needed them to be pruned to stop the roots growing underneath, this took place before 29 Baker Street was included within the conservation area in 2014.( See details from the website : Areas added in the 2014 Conservation Area Review. The 1990 boundary cut through the grounds of 27a and 29 Baker Street. For the sake clarity and in order to avoid confusion the boundary has been extended to include the whole of the grounds of these properties.) I purchased the property in June 2020 and toward the end of last year started experiencing new subsidence issues, we had the ground surveyed by a company called Geobear and found that the issues were as stated above the house is on shallow foundations with an unstable clay underneath and this was being exacerbated by the tree roots growing underneath the house and sucking the moisture out of the clay. They carried out works to drill down to 2 metre depth every 500mm along the front of the house and along the right hand side up to the rear extension and resin inject under the house to stabilise it. They recommended once these works were complete that I could then go ahead and get the conifer trees pruned to reduce the possibilities of any further issues. So consequently I have contacted Bucks Tree Surgeons, Weedon Road, Aylesbury, HP19 9PB. Josh Tel: 01296 392197 Mobile: 07701392197 with a view to having the trees pruned, they have visited an recommended Crowning the two conifer trees by approximately 2 metres in height and also to trim the branches away fr...

Crown Reduction to T5 English Oak (Category A): undertake 2 metre crown reduction to improve light levels as well as reducing future stress on the foundations of the new extension. Removal of deadwood and improving safety. Removal of Ornamental Cherry T2 (Category C): T2 is a semi-mature cherry tree close to the garage, its rooting area is notably poor being surrounded by paving and driveway. It has slender form and its canopy touches the garage roof-line. T2 is in close proximity of the house so its removal will reduce future stress on the foundations of the house and garage. We propose the removal and replanting of a new replacement cherry. Phased removal of G3 Cypress Group (Category C): The trees were planted to create screening and privacy, but have not been height managed and are now excessively tall. The trees have large stems, some less than 2m from the boundary walls and close to the foundations of the house and not sustainable. The trees' canopies touch the house and roof-line, creating excessive shade on the south eastern side of the garden. G3 cypress are still not mature and can be expected to continue vigorous growth, potentially creating issues and stresses on the house foundations. We propose a 'phased tree removal' of G3 cypress group over several years. The removal of G3 will have many advantages, including improving light levels to the eastern garden and will be highly beneficial to nearby groups of English Yew (G2) G1 Boundary Cypress Trees (Category C): This linear group of cypress located on the south western boundary, has been left to grow excessively tall over a period of time and requires maintenance. Reduce their height by 50% to allow more light into the garden and create a formal 2m hedge.
