Application for works to protected trees - Chorley BC TPO 8 (Cuerden) 2013: T25 Pinus (Pine) - To remove the tree and stump completely; T104 Zelkova serrata - To remove the tree and stump completely; T115 Prunus laurocerasus (Cherry Laurel) - Removal for development works; and Acer pseudoplatanus (Sycamore) - Removal for development of car parking space

To identify the tree of concern I have attached a Tree Survey File. On the drawing the tree is seen on the border of plot 2 and plot 3 labelled "Leylandii". Since the survey was completed the land has been sold for development and the resultant plots are slightly different resulting in the tree being on the very border of plot 2. I am the owner of plot 2. I will also include a few pictures of the tree. The tree is very large and over bearing. I would like to replace the tree with a number of smaller trees distributed around the plot. Design to be established by a landscape professional should approval be possible for the removal of the large tree,

T1 11m Maple - Crown reduce in height by 4m to previous reduction points, tip back 2m lateral growth by 1m on all compass points Reasons: To control root and crown development

T3 (Sycamore): Reduce canopy overhanging internal wall by up to 2m, pruning back to suitable secondary growth. T4 (Sycamore): Reduce canopy overhanging internal wall by up to 2m, pruning back to suitable secondary growth. G2 (Sycamore): Reduce canopy overhanging internal wall by up to 2m, pruning back to suitable secondary growth. Southern most tree in G2 (Sycamore) remove the lowest branch overhanging internal wall. T6 (Silver maple): Remove lowest branch overhanging internal wall. As shown in photo 2. T7 (Silver maple): Remove lowest branch overhanging internal wall (previously reduced). As shown in photo 3. Remove overlong lateral branch overhanging site. As shown in photo 4. To provide adequate working room and clearance from approved development. T8 (Sycamore): remove 6 small branches (regrowth from previous pruning point. As shown in photo 5. T10 (Tree of Heaven): Remove lowest secondary branch with. As shown in photo 6. Remove overlong lateral branch overhanging site. To provide adequate working room and clearance from approved development. As shown in photo 7. T10 & T11 (Tree of Heaven): Reduce canopy overhanging internal wall by up to 2m, pruning back to suitable secondary growth. This is to provide adequate working room and clearance from the approved development.

The work required is the the two trees which border the development and the public house, there are some dead branches and residents would like dead wood removed and these trimmed back to previous pruning points on the property side and removal of epicormic on the stem, so that it will allow more light into their properties. TPO 265E.

T1 Horse Chestnut - reduce limb on south western side towards property by up to 2/3m to reduce end weight loading T2 Lime - Remove tree to allow development of smaller trees in linear group (at end...

T5 Ash - Over-extended branches throughout canopy at increased risk of failure. Continued growth is suppressing balanced development of 2 x Sycamores adjacent. Reduce height by 3-4m. Reduce spread of longest branches on all sides by up to 2.5m to shape round T8 - Willow - Recommended to reduce risk of structural failures at established pollard heads and over-extended limbs. Reduce limb above river by 4-5m down to previous pollard points. Reduce height and spread of remaining stems by 4-5m to shape round. T9 - Willow - Recommended to reduce risk of structural failure of over-extended branches all round. Reduce height by approximately 5m. Reduce spread on all sides by 3-4m to shape round.

(Land Known As Bluebell Wood, Located Off Pallet Close) Large Ash tree which has Ash Die Back - Wish to carry out a 6 metre radial reduction to reduce risk and continue to monitor development of As...

T7 Red horse chestnut to reduce lateral growth by approximately 1.5m. The tree has spread laterally over the years with some larger limbs protruding. With the new development next door there is also a fair amount overhanging the boundary line. The aim would be to reduce the tree to create a more compact balance crown that doesn't impeed on the neighbours property as much whilst providing more light to the front of No.47

Development Site (Formery 1-4 Woodpeckers Drive) T56 horse chestnut. Crown lift to 7m removing 1 x lowest dropping limb (180mm diameter)(as shown in photograph) and lower tertiary branches (max. 50...
