Willow / salix. Circumstances approx 100cm Height approx - 40ft Tree is becoming to large / overgrown. The branches are now bending from the being to long and overweight l. Damage to fence line is highly likely. The hazard and risk has increased since we have been here, I am also concerned of any damage it could cause to myself and the family. I wish to fell the tree / reduce to a large stump or to prune the tree very far back to stunt growth. The only access to remove this is in a plot of waste land behind me, but the area will be blocked in by development soon.

1. Beech Hedge - trimmed to c.3m in height and maintained at this height. There is a Beech hedge adjacent to my property that has been allowed to grow to a height which is restricting the light onto my property and significantly overhanging my boundary. The hedge was never intended to be trees (c.27 beech trees in less than 8m) and at one stage was cut to c.8 foot. Since then it has been allowed to grow and if it continues will cause significant issues with our property. The trees/hedge are approximately 6 metres tall. The hedge is on a strip of land that is owned by Barratts Development PLC. The hedge is between my house (9 Filbert Grove) and Treen House. It is <1m from my fence boundary.

G1 - X 8 (approx.) Hazel (Corylus avellana) and x 1 Holly (Ilex aquifolium) Approx Height - 3-5m Location - Front garden and Rear garden left hand boundary Work required- reduce height back to previous by removing approximately 1-2m, trim back trim sides back to previous to shape and trim back side over public footpath back to the boundary fence Reason - as part of continued maintenance T1 - Field Maple (Acer campestre) Approx Height - 14m Approx Crown Spread Diameter - 10m Location - Rear garden left hand boundary Work required- Crown reduce back to previous by removing approximately approximately 1.5-2m but pruning to the most suitable growth point to maintain future crown development. Remove the large dead top of x1 limb (see photo) Reason - as part of continued maintenance to control and contain overall size of tree

Fell 5 Ash trees ont he verge along the rear garden. Tree 1 comprises 3 trunks from a common base. The trees overhang my garden and the public road, Pringle way at the rear of the house. Fell because of excessive branch shedding with branches falling onto the road and my garden and low amenity value. Falling branches are sometimes quite large and pose a risk to pedestrians and drivers as well as garden occupants. One branch was so large it broke through one of the fence panels. I would like to replant 2 silver birch trees with more appropriate spacing to allow more attractive canopy development.

T1: T1: Fell to ground. Dead pine. Approximately 10 metres high. One metre from footpath which has public right of way. It will become a risk of falling. No replanting to allow development of surrounding trees (including Oak labelled T6 on diagram, the trunk of the oak is 4ms from dead pine. The oak has a canopy of approx. 20ms circumference)" Hedge: A holly hedge on the North West boundary is dying gradually. Presumably, the overhanging birch (T2 and T3) and oak branches (T4, T5 and T6) in our neighbours garden have provided inadequate light for it to survive. Several dead holly trunks have been removed over several years. Other dead trunks remain. The trunks now have extensive growth of ivy and climbing weed. The holly hedge bordering the house is unsightly for the neighbours (Anfield). It has no amenity value. We would like to remove the line of holly hedge as marked above and replace with a fence. The holly hedge away from the house and bordering the garden remains strong and will remain as it is. There is no record in our deeds to suggest the hedge has a protection order. We have 50 ms of holly hedge elsewhere in the garden. Please confirm that permission is not required to remove the dying/dead holly hedge, or please provide approval.

8 No. English oak - Crown lift The east side of the crowns to approx. 4m to allow for boundary fences to be erected and to reduce selected limbs on the eastern side of the crown to reduce the over hang in to the new purposed development gardens

Please refer to our advisors report. The proposal is to retain the existing chestnut pail fence and construct a new fence with a wooden post and panel fence at 2m tall. This will be erected as close as possible to the existing boundary fence. The specification provided by the client is a contemporary style screening will be fitted along the existing rear boundary fence line. To permit the development to proceed, it will be necessary to remove some stems of H5, a privet hedge, to which the largest stem diameter was recorded at 85mm. Some minor trees below 75mm in stem diameter were on the site but not assessed. These may need to be removed as part of the development programme - none of which should have any detrimental effect. All other trees are to be retained.

Sycamore, Hawthorn, Lime, Ash T27, T47, T48, T62, T69, T70 - Linear group of trees located on the boundary with plots 15-18 to south west of new residential development site - Cut back lateral branches by 3m to north, to 1m inside new fence line, to abate nuisance of overhanging branches towards new residential house gardens.

T1 SMALL CHERRY GROWING THROUGH MAGNOLIA ~ remove to enhance development of Magnolia; T2 COTONEASTER AT REAR OF 45 ST MICHAELS ~ reduce back foliage to boundary fence with drive of No. 43, being an approximate reduction of 0.5 to 0.75ms; T3 SILVER BIRCH IN REAR OF 49 ST MICHAELS ~ prune back lower branches to boundary which overhang Conifers in No. 43, being an approximate reduction of 0.25ms;
