43 High Street Whittlesford Cambridge Cambridgeshire CB22 4LT

Tree, thought to be Cherry is in the back garden of 43 High Street, adjacent to fence with 2 Whiskins. The tree is easily identifiable from attached sketch. Reason for the application: 1. Branch hitting my roof when windy. 2. Blocking light to adjacent window. 3. Leaves blocking gutters and downpipe. 4. Roots pushing up patch creating trip hazard. Request permission to have branches and roots cut back to boundary.

2 St Pauls Walk Cambridge Cambridgeshire CB1 2EX

T1Quercus ilex (Holm Oak) - Create framework pollard at 4m 30cm. This height reduces the main stem to just below the area of bark removed, probably by a squirrel. T2 Prunus cerasifera (Cherry Plum) - Reduce crown to clear roof and building by approximately 80cm. T7, 9 & 11 Prunus subhirtella 'Autumnalis' (Autumn / Winter Cherry) - Crown reduce by approximately 1.5m to shorten extraneous growth and maintain natural shape. Work to be undertaken June 2021. T8, 10 & 12 Malus tschonoskii (pillar Crab Apple) - Reduce height of all three trees to approximately 6m and shorten lateral growth by approximately 50% to leave as a reduced framework. T14 Fagus sylvatica (Beech) - This tree is growing in the corner of the site, it is approximately 10cm from the boundary railings, it is also within 1.5m of the pathway wall and the crown is now beginning have an influence on the adjacent large church windows. I believe all the above will lead to this tree becoming a 'nuisance' and will ultimately cause some damage. For these reasons I can only recommend this is removed before it becomes much larger. The adjacent Purple Filbert (Hazel) will not become such a problem and can be maintained as a tree or regularly coppiced to allow light to the surrounding planting area. T13 Fraxinus excelcior (Ash) - This tree is on the boundary with Cambridge Place. Sadly it has the early stages of Ash Die-Back and will continue to decline over the next two or three years until it dies. There is no known treatment. Given the position of the tree pushing against the neighbouring wall and below and within the railings I recommend the stumps is left when it is removed. I recommend planting a suitable replacement tree closer to the corner created by the railings. This can be achieved by cutting back the Pyrancatha and removing the small Mahonia. Eventually the Pyracantha can spread around the stem of the new tree. For the replacement of T13, I recommend a Robinia pseudoacacia 'Tortuosa'

Pavilion End Rectory Lane Fowlmere SG8 7TL

T.1 - Silver Birch - Fell to ground level. Tree has become too large for client and they are concerned with it being in close proximity to house. It's a large tree and very close to the back of the house and patio. It blocks light from the bedroom windows and we are concerned about the foundations and proximity to the house. The garden lawn suffers greatly with roots taking all the moisture. (Heather Lorne)
