Row of 3 x Copper Beech on the rear boundary - Remove significant deadwood from tree nearest the house. Fell remaining 2 Copper Beech trees to near ground level, due to having lost more than 50% of their crowns to dieback due to soil compaction as a result of construction work when the houses were built. Oak tree beside the house - reduce in size to leave approximately 11.0m tall (2.0m off the height) and with a radial crown spread of approximately 5.5m (1.5m off the spread). Eucalyptus in the corner by the pond - this tree has girdling roots and is dying back in the crown now 40% dead. Fell to near ground level and treat stump to discourage re-growth.

Felling of "Grafted" Apple/Pear Hybrid. This tree is growing against the wall of 12 The Green, Great Horwood on the driveway side. This building is grade II listed. Reason(s) for removal: This wall has experienced previous structural movement. The foundations for buildings of this type and age are limited. Removal will help to keep the wall in a stable condition. This wall is experiencing high levels of damp penetration. Root stock is known to hold significant levels of moisture and this is transferred to the base of the traditional solid wall construction leading to damp penetration. Phased crown reduction, leading to removal of Yew. This Yew tree is very close to the rear of the house. Quote from building surveyors report "There is a large tree very close to the rear of the property and this is within influencing distance of the building and is a potential risk to the structural integrity of the property. It would be appropriate to draw up a programme of reduction and phased removal." This work has been discussed and planned with a local Arborist who looks after the other trees at this address. They indicate that it is best carried out over 2/3 years.

Removal of three trees and works to fourth tree, in close proximity to residential dwelling of Upper Farm, as follows: T1 - Mature Sycamore, Approx 60 ft - Works to remove a lower limbs and raise the canopy (crown lifting) due to excessive shading, visual obstruction and safety concerns. T2 - Thuia Evergreen Approx 30 ft - Fell due to damage to the underground cables, electricity, telephone and water pipes. Planted within 4m of the house with resultant root damage to the wall that it is planted between and the house as well as excessive shading, visual obstruction, above ground storm damage to property and safety concerns to pedestrians. T3 - Leylandii Evergreen - Fell due to excessive shading, visual obstruction, potential damage to property and safety concerns as planted within 2m of house construction, leaning at an extreme angle and highly dangerous. T4 Holly Tree Approx 20 ft - Fell due to excessive shading, visual obstruction, potential damage to property and safety concerns. It is the intention of the new owner to plant approximately 20 further trees at Upper Farm in more suitable locations in the winter of 2021/2022
