We had the Oak tree trimmed earlier this year by our usual tree surgeon. However, the sap dripping from the tree as well as bird faeces dropping from the tree are causing significant damage and problems on our driveway and damaging the bodywork to our cars parked on the driveway. As a result my wife???s car valuation was reduced due to the damaged paintwork caused by the sap and faeces when we recently sold the vehicle. In addition, our neighbours have complained and our window cleaner has commented on the mess and damage that is being caused. We are therefore requesting that the tree is felled (by our usual qualified tree surgeon) or at the very least some form of robust pruning / pollarding to ensure all overhanging branches are cut back. TPO 125W.

WDC TPO 126 T1 Oak - Fell. Reason: large limb fell recently and damaged car resulting in tree being reduced as an emergency to agreed positions. Extremely close to the front of the property and since the recent loss of part of the crown and the reduction to make safe, the tree has far less amenity value and is not an asset to the property or the surrounding area. Now it is reduced it will grow vigorously from the new pruned positions and will hide the front of the house and take light from the windows.

Notice of intent to carry out works to trees protected by Tree Preservation Order 5/83 - T2 Sycamore - Reduce limbs on building side by approximately 1.5 metres to natural pruning points, to prevent them growing into windows T4 Beech - Reduce crown by 1-2 metres on all aspects, removing whole, sublateral branches with a diameter of no more than 100mm. Thin crown by 20% to allow more light into garden and flats T5 London Plane - Reduce overextended limbs on building side by up to 3 metres to natural pruning points, to keep them away from building T6 Hawthorn - Reduce crown by 2 metres to natural pruning points on all aspects to separate from London Plane T7 Birch - Reduce crown by 1 metre throughout, to natural pruning points on all aspects to allow more light into adjacent flats T8 Cherry - Reduce crown by 1 metre throughout, to natural pruning points on all aspects to allow more light into adjacent flats

Yew tree front of property: Remove Reasons; 1. tree is leaning badly to left. 2. the tree roots are damaging the drives to both properties 3. the tree roots are causing damage around the existing manhole. 4. the berries from the tree are poisonous and pose a hazard to the grand children and family pets . 5. the berries are causing damage to the family car and visibility through the window screen. 6. the berries cause damage to the drive and pose a problem of being walked into the house. 6. There is standing water in the existing manhole which indicates that the out-vet level has lifted above the invert level. it is suspected that the roots have got under the existing drains causing the problem.

To remove mature beech tree situated on the left hand side of front boundary next to both property and neighbouring property.To be removed due to being far to large for its surroundings growing way over property roof and windows. as well as showing extensive surface roots (pictures shown in application).Showing fears of potential subsidence to property.Replacement Fagus sylvatica to be planted in its place.

Oak (T1) - crown thin by 10% to increase light levels to the side windows of the property

Copper Beech tree - Crown lift lower branches over road by 3-4m and crown lift lower branches over driveways and those covering roof and windows. Remove any dead branches. Then EITHER: Crown thin by 30% and remove all crossing and rubbing branches OR: Crown reduce to leave tree approximately 21m tall and 6m wide when viewed directly opposite the property.

My requests fall broadly into three areas summarised below. However, in total, I am making 6 requests (A - F below). 1) This relates PT 1 - PT 5 on enclosed map. These changes - overall - will align the size and shape of the main trees (PT1, 2 and 3), removing overhanging or damaged branches, and improve light access for all trees. it will also support the growth of PT4, PT5 and NPT1 & NPT 2A) PT1 - Oak - Remove dead or damaged wood, reduce overhanging bilateral branches by 2 meters, and Crown thinning of up to 20%, to increase light to garden and surrounding trees. B) PT 2 - Cherry - Crown reduction by maximum of 3 meters. To align height and shape to PT 1 and PT 3 C) PT3 - Sweet Chestnut -Crown reduction by maximum of 3 meters. remove damaged branch overhanging property / seating area.D) PT4 - Holly Tree - Reduce height by no more than 2 meters, and bilateral branches by no more than 1 meter (to maintain shape). 2) This relates to PT 6, 8, and 9 on enclosed map, this change is to ensure good woodland management. Due to lean and poor crown shape, felling PT 6 will drastically improve light to PT9 and PT8 which are becoming over shadowed. it will also improve light to PT7 and NPT 3. E) Fell PT6 - Larch - to ground level, as it is a poor specimen and it will allow the continued growth and health of PT8 and 9 (as well as trees and foliage that are within a neighbouring property). 3) This relates to a group of 15 conifers labelled GT1. 7 of these trees were pruned in 2014, but 8 were not. Overall, their height aligns to the roof level (some to roof ridge level). I would like to restore these (or complete an initial prune) to align all conifers to the 2nd floor window height. F) Reduce the hight of 15 trees by between 2 and 3 meters and uniform their height and align to 2nd floor window. Rationale: Some of the trees within the copse land to the rear of our property have had some works carried out in 2014, but largely the trees and copse area as a w...

4 trees with 2 sycamore and 2 Lime that are at the rear of No 11 and 13 behind a stone wall. The trees are on the land of Edward Clay Ltd and recently we have spoken to Mr Clay and Luke and they even came in to the garden to see the issue and both agreed crown thinning and crown cleaning would be necessary as in line with previous approved applications 2006 and 2015. At times especially when it is windy ourselves and the owner of No13 have a lot of twigs/LG branches that hit the house including windows and roof. Both No 11 and 13 have had to undertake excessive roof cleaning from moss that also comes from the tree size and lack of light at a cost of almost ?1300.

TPO Application - 1x Alder - Crown Lift to 5m and 50% Crown Reduction, Current Tree Dimensions are - Width 12m, Height 12.5m. Reason - Complaints from Neighbours, Gutters Blocked, Windows Obstructed and Mould.
