T1 Field Maple - Selectively Crown Reduce - Reducing the height and spread of the tree around 1.5 metres removing more growth on the side towards the barn property to redress overall balance and reduce extension and vigour of codominant stem extended towards barn. (This limb has a poorly formed union close to its base). T2. Field Maple - Remove tree because it is close to boundary fence with insufficient space to develop due to proximity of adjacent Cherry T3 and is beginning to impact on fence. T3. Cherry - Selectively crown reduce - Reducing height and spread by around 1.5 meters to improve crown shape and balance, (particularly needed after removal of T2). T4 Silver Birch - Selectively reduce crown spread by around 0.5 meter to redress crown balance.

HI, I am the current owner of Old Manor Cottage, 29 Baker Street Waddesdon which is an 1875 cottage with very shallow foundations on a clay ground so it is subject to instability. There are two large conifer trees at the front of my garden that as you face the property are to the right hand side of it. These trees are approximately 2 metres + higher than my property and are causing two issues. They caused historical subsidence in 2003 before I owned the property which needed them to be pruned to stop the roots growing underneath, this took place before 29 Baker Street was included within the conservation area in 2014.( See details from the website : Areas added in the 2014 Conservation Area Review. The 1990 boundary cut through the grounds of 27a and 29 Baker Street. For the sake clarity and in order to avoid confusion the boundary has been extended to include the whole of the grounds of these properties.) I purchased the property in June 2020 and toward the end of last year started experiencing new subsidence issues, we had the ground surveyed by a company called Geobear and found that the issues were as stated above the house is on shallow foundations with an unstable clay underneath and this was being exacerbated by the tree roots growing underneath the house and sucking the moisture out of the clay. They carried out works to drill down to 2 metre depth every 500mm along the front of the house and along the right hand side up to the rear extension and resin inject under the house to stabilise it. They recommended once these works were complete that I could then go ahead and get the conifer trees pruned to reduce the possibilities of any further issues. So consequently I have contacted Bucks Tree Surgeons, Weedon Road, Aylesbury, HP19 9PB.
