The tree is 3rd along from the front boundary of 12 Sackville Street/1 The Spinney (4 trees in total). I have highlighted through photographs the area that needs cutting back. The tree is a horse chestnut that has one part that is overhanging the property of 12 Sackville Street and has caused damage to the conservatory roof by way of falling conkers. The conservatory roof needs replacing but before this is done we need to take back the branch that is overhanging and causing the problem.

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.

T1 Oak: Fell, tree is causing excessive shade to both the property and neighbouring property. No structural survey has been undertaken at this point in time however, hairline cracks are visible on the brick work of the conservatory (please see attached pictures). The resident is willing to have a structural engineer provide a report should this be required. A replacement 6ft standard Oak tree would be planted on the same boundary in the rear garden, a suitable distance from both properties.

T1 Oak Tree (on rear boundary, overhanging conservatory) - reduce western crown spread by up to 2 metres back to suitable growth points to clear back from property, clean out crown to remove dead, dying and decayed branches, small epicormic and unneeded shoot growth
