1. Fir tree - Fell Fir Tree adjacent to driveway entrance. A number of branches have been removed by the previous owner leaving a significent coverage of dead foliage which is unsightly. The plan is to remove this tree in order to improve visibility of more established trees in that section of the garden. 2. Holly Tree - Fell Holly Tree. This tree appears to have been planted by natural seeding. It is encroaching and inhibiting branch development of a Mature Pine Tree which is the main feature of this part of the garden.

Large mature oak (T30 on the TPO schedule) with branches overhanging and beginning to make contact with the properties to the north and south. The oak is showing low vigour from the branch tips, with some dieback and minimal foliage extension growth. Crown reduce by 2-3m to suitable growth points to give clearance to the adjacent properties. 2-3m in from the current crown dimensions foliage development has better vitality which indicates that the tree is entrenching to some extent and trying to manage itself at a smaller size such that allowing branches to dieback naturally, is not acceptable due to the location of the tree over a busy footpath and close proximity to property and private amenity space.

1. Beech Hedge - trimmed to c.3m in height and maintained at this height. There is a Beech hedge adjacent to my property that has been allowed to grow to a height which is restricting the light onto my property and significantly overhanging my boundary. The hedge was never intended to be trees (c.27 beech trees in less than 8m) and at one stage was cut to c.8 foot. Since then it has been allowed to grow and if it continues will cause significant issues with our property. The trees/hedge are approximately 6 metres tall. The hedge is on a strip of land that is owned by Barratts Development PLC. The hedge is between my house (9 Filbert Grove) and Treen House. It is <1m from my fence boundary.

Birch 1 - Rear corner of property. Reduce and reshape as managed previously, reducing to suitable laterals my no more that 2 metres leaving canopy spread of approximately 3.5-4 metres. Thin remaining canopy by 20%. To maintain canopy in a manner which appears good aesthetically, whilst mitigating development of excessive size in relation to the trees location. Birch 2 - Rear boundary of property. This tree is dying with seriously greying with disfigured growths on the trunk (with very limited signs of flowering at all) and is causing a decaying and growing spread on the ground surface of approximately 12 square metres. Remove to ground level to prevent further damage to surface and surrounding area. Replant with appropriate species circa 3.5-4 metres to the left of original position. Lime tree - Roadside within property boundary. Re pollard as carried out previosly to continue management of canopy inline with existing strategy. Birch 3 - Front boundary of property. The underground roots are spreading which are starting to cause damage to both the driveway and eventually the footpath. The tree itself is disfigured and irregular in shaoe therefore remove to ground level to prevent further damage and to also increase light into property but also to replant with appropriate species within 1 metre of original position.
