1 Fircroft Close Brighton Brighton & Hove BN1 6RY

Yew tree (only one tree) - reduce & re-shape Crown & sides of the tree by three meters. The tree is so large that it is overhanging the roof & walls of neighbours at 3 Fircroft Close, it is also overhanging our garage (1 Fircroft Close) - leaf drop is blocking the guttering on both properties. I am concerned of the risk the tree poses to the identified buildings, it is leaning towards the garage of 1 Fircroft Close & property at 3 Fircroft Close. Considering the recent Autumn / Winter storms we've had, I'm desperate to reduce the canopy size before Autumn to minimise the chances of it being blown over & damaging these buildings in a storm. The tree trunk /base is located two meters away from the garage wall belonging to us (1 Fircroft Close) & five meters away from the wall of 3 Fircroft Close. Neighbours at both 4 & 6 Fircroft Close have complained to me that the tree is blocking their light & would like the tree reduced in size.

Dorothy Stringer School Loder Road Brighton Brighton & Hove BN1 6PZ

T1-Horse Chestnut: Fell and replant with a suitable replacement elsewhere in the school grounds. The tree is growing incredibly close to the northern garage wall and the house. Fell the tree due to being an unsuitable species to be so close to the garage and house. At this stage it has low amenity value ( The tree is a young self seeded tree 8m high with a stem diameter of approx 20cm) and would need constant management to retain so close to both buildings. Replant with another native species further from the house and garage where it could be left to develop to maturity with minimal need for further management.

T1- Elm tree- reduce top lateral branches by a maximum of 3 meters and southern and eastern lateral branches by a maximum of 5 meters This tree has a misshapen crown and is weighted to the south and east as there was another tree that it grew alongside to the north, this tree has died and now the elm does not have the shared crown space that it once had and is this heavily weighted and missing its counterbalance to the north and west. Group 1- 8 juvenile sycamore saplings (all just over 10/15cms at 1.3 meters high)- fell to ground level- too close to garage retaining wall.

55 Tongdean Avenue Hove BN3 6TN

Front Garden, Adjacent to the Garage T1 - Macrocarpa Remove major dead and diseased wood, 25mm in diameter and over. Remove 2 to 3 low limbs over the solar panels. Remove limb on the east side. Reduce the top section by 2 to 3 metres. Front Garden, Garage T2 - Small Macrocarpa Fell smaller tree growing through T1 Front Garden, Front Boundary T3 - Beech Remove major dead and diseased wood, 25mm in diameter and over. Front Garden, Adjacent to the Garage G4 - 2 x Cypress Fell as close to ground level as possible. Adjacent to the Pool T5 - Pittosporum Remove the stem over the pool, prune round to reduce overall size. Rear of Caf? T6 - Cypress Reduce height by 3 to 4 metres and shape top. ALL ITEMS INCLUDING REMOVING ARISING DEBRIS, LEAVING SITE CLEAN AND TIDY. The subject trees are located in a domestic front garden and are in need of some remedial pruning, this will help to retain them at a suitable size for their location. With growth encroaching onto properties the suggested works will reduce this problem and also improve the light fall to the solar panels located on the garage roof. The proposal is unlikely to have an adverse impact either on the health of the tree or the character and amenities of the local area
