T1. Chestnut in far LH corner - treat stump to inhibit regrowth 8x6m safety works T2. Sycamore rear garden LHS - Crown Reduction. Reducing the height and spread of the tree by up to 2 metres. All pruning cuts shall be made to suitable secondary growth points and shall maintain a stable platform for the expected regrowth 10x8m down to 8x6m.

1. (TB2) twin-stemmed (from ground level) beech tree - Removal of one bough from the one stem. largely on my neighbour's side of our boundary fence but with some of the trunk in my garden, and one stem leaning westwards towards my house and thus almost completely overhanging my garden. After taking advice from a tree surgeon I would like to remove one bough from the one stem, reducing the weight over my garden. Please be aware that my house is 10 years old and so far my property has been damaged three times by beech trees blown over by prevailing SW winds. Several years ago a mature tree fell over from the garden of 4 Elvetham Close causing significant damage to the roof of my house. In February 2022 two mature beech trees growing next to each other fell from the garden of Chase House, causing significant damage to my garden, fences and outdoor furniture and more minor damage to the house. I, and my wife in particular, are now concerned about the stability of any trees that are within striking distance of our house, lean our way, and share root balls with other trees. In this respect TB2 is our main concern. We would like to keep such trees pruned and stable. Please also note that my answer the question about tree ownership relates to TB2 only - TSC1 is mine.

Pin Oak (LHS side of property, close to boundary) - Reduce the height and spread of the tree by up to 2.5m. The lower SE, S & SW (overhanging neighbouring property) laterals have been reduced heavily in the past in an attempt to pull into shape - reduce regrowth back to suitable live growth in line with remaining canopy. All pruning cuts shall be made to suitable secondary growth points and shall maintain a stable platform for the expected regrowth. Remove any major deadwood over 20mm diameter. Suitable access for our tracked MEWP - take boards to protect lawn from track damage. Measurements: Pre works - 26x19m Post works - 23.5x16.5m.

T2. Oak rear garden - Evidence of old Ganoderma fruiting body at the base of the stem on eastern aspect, localised decay when tapped with acoustic mallet. Large vertical tear in upper eastern canopy (approximately 2 metres long and half a metre wide) on a predominant stem with a heavy lean to the north. Several wood pecker holes on internal stems at approximately 8 metres. Various historic tears throughout crown. Large over extended limb to the south east with historic tear at approximately 5 metres from main union. I recommend a partial Crown Reduction. Reducing the height and spread of the stem in the eastern canopy with recent tear by up to 1.5 metres and reducing the large limb to the south east by 1.5 - 2 metres. All pruning cuts shall be made to suitable secondary growth points and shall maintain a stable platform for the expected regrowth. Inspection carried out from ground level using and acoustic mallet and metal probe.22x20m down to 22x18m works to prevent further failure of limbs

Fell 13 no. Plum trees situated behind stables to SE of the property.

1. (TSC1) Sweet Chestnut - Fell In my garden, which is pushing against my fence. This tree is near to a dense group of beech trees, overhangs my garden completely including directly above my summer house. I would like to fell it. Please note that if I am required to plant a replacement it cannot be in exactly the same location as TSC1 is over a main electricity supply to our road and I am not allowed to plant trees within the protected strip. Please be aware that my house is 10 years old and so far my property has been damaged three times by beech trees blown over by prevailing SW winds. Several years ago a mature tree fell over from the garden of 4 Elvetham Close causing significant damage to the roof of my house.

In this respect TB2 is our main concern. We would like to keep such trees pruned and stable. Please also note that my answer the question about tree ownership relates to TB2 only - TSC1 is mine.

1188 Dead Sycamore adjacent to stables access - Section fell as close to ground level as possible. 1189 Hawthorn - Create new pollard at 1.5m leaving monolith and sever Ivy on surrounding Hawthorns. 1193 Dead Maple adjacent to path marked with pink cross - Section fell as close to ground level as possible. Remove lateral branch from adjacent tree to west, back to main stem, marked with a pink cross. 1194g 2 x Dead Sycamores (marked with pink cross) - Section fell as close to ground level as possible. 1195 Small dead Maple adjacent to path and mud kitchen area (marked with pink cross) - Section fell as close to ground level as possible. 1196 Leyland Cypress - Dead stem overhanging path: Remove dead stem overhanging path and remove minor deadwood (marked with pink cross). 1197g Sycamore, Oak and Hawthorn - 1 x declining Sycamore - Section fell to approximately 1m high. Sever Ivy on adjacent young Hawthorn and Oak marked with pink dots. 1193 Dead Sycamore - Section fell to ground level. 1936 Sycamore - Remove dead stubs from north crown over very high use play area. Remove minor deadwood. 452 Common Lime - Crown reduce stems by 5m to create a new pollard. Reduce two stems by a further 5m to their final height. 1187 Sycamore - Section fell as close to ground level as possible. 1191g Group of 3 Sycamore trees - Remove dead branches and deadwood from crown and over path from east tree and sever Ivy. This may reveal substantial dead branching from adjacent Hawthorn - Cut back to vertical stems approximately halfway along. Sever Ivy from stem of central tree. SUBJECT TO TPO 739 (20.8.1991)

T1. Oak (front garden) - Reduce the height and spread of the tree by up to 2.5m, back to near previous points of reduction. All pruning cuts shall be made to suitable secondary growth points and shall maintain a stable platform for the expected regrowth. Remove epicormic growth off trunk up to main crown break union and remove major deadwood over 25mm diameter. 16x12m pre works, 13.5x9.5m post works. Good arboricultural practice and to allow more light into in 55&57 Wray Common Road

The tree is an aspen, labelled T1 . This tree is around 20m high and has a public footpath and livery stables to one side and a house to the rear, as shown in the attached plan "aspen position". This tree has lost a number of large branches in very windy and stormy weather (as can be seen from the attached photos) and has caused damage to the property behind as well as a period where a branch overhung the stables until we could get someone to deal with it. The branches were found to be diseased explaing why they fell. In summer, when the tree is in full leaf, the branches become very heavy leading to the potential for danger to anyone underneath. It is also unbalanced as a result of the breakage but new growth can be seen below the proposed cutting line (aspen proposed cutting line.jpg). We have contacted the two neighbours most affected by the threat from the tree and they support this. The proposal is to reduce the height by around 40%, encouraging further growth much lower down and reducing the risk of danger to people and property in the area.

T4 lime - crown raise to approximately 4 m above ground level T5 sycamore - crown raise to approximately 4 m above ground level T6 horse chestnut - reduce elongated limb west side originating at approximately 8 m by up to 1.5 m T8 sycamore - remove deadwood over 20 mm in diameter T9 sycamore - remove deadwood over 20 mm in diameter T10 sycamore - remove deadwood over 20 mm in diameter, crown raise to approximately 4 m T11 lime - Crown raise over stable building to ensure 2 m clearance T12 Sycamore- remove deadwood over 25 mm in diameter, crown raise to approximately 4 m above ground level
