Front garden left hand side. H1 - Lime hedge, trim all round to tidy; reduce height to previous reduction points. The trees are located in the front garden on the boundary line of School Hill. The works are regular maintenance works to maintain the trees at a suitable size for their location. To maintain the balance of the trees for future years; to reduce the extent of the encroachment from the highway of School Hill. Front of House: G2 - Creeper, prune to tidy; remove off the roof and clear from gutters and windows. Exempt works: Front garden right hand side: G3 - Mixed species, trim tops to common level; trim all sides as hard as possible retaining healthy growth. Fell to ground level and poison 1 x self set Sycamore by front elevation of the house. The line of trees are located in the front garden on the boundary line of London Road South. The works are part of a maintenance program to maintain the trees at a suitable size for their location; to reduce the encroachment from the public footpath. Felling of the Sycamore near the front elevation of the building as this will become an undesirable species in the future and to reduce the risk of future damage to the building if allowed to mature. Front garden front boundary: T4 - Buddleia, Reduce to a height of approximately 1 - 1.5 metres from ground level. The mature shrub is located in the front garden to the front boundary. Reduction to maintain the shrub at a suitable size for its location; To remove the encroachment from the public footpath and street furniture

The tree is a Copper Beech situated in the small communal garden at the front of the block of flat known as 18 Tower Road. The LPA already has clear details of location of the tree - TPO RE458. The tree is approximately 9m high and its branches are growing above the height of the block of flats which results in twigs and leaves falling onto the roof of the building which in turn causes problems with the roof and blocked gutters. The branches also provide rodents and squirrels with potential access to the roof and the building. The branches growing towards the building are now touching the building, blocking out light, and blocking gutters with leaves and twigs. The branches also provide potential access to the building to rodents and squirrels. The branches growing towards the public highway are now growing beyond the property boundary and over the public footpath. The tree is realistically only visible to a maximum of 5 - 7 households and as Tower Road is a quiet suburban road it viewed by very little highway traffic. Proposed works:- 1. Reduce the height of the tree by 2 m so that it is no higher than the beginning of the roof of the building; 2. Cut back the branches growing towards the building by 60 cms; and 3. Cut back the branches growing over the public highway so that they do not extend beyond the hedge bordering the property.

SEE CONDITION 2 FOR APPROVED WORKS. Rear Garden - Back Boundary T1 - Oak. Reduce back overhang from roof area to a line of approximately 1.5 - 1.8 metres from the rear elevation of the building by carrying out a reduction of approximately 2-3 metres of the branch length.. The tree is located in the rear garden to the rear boundary. The tree is currently over hanging the roof area to the rear of the building. Reduction back from the roof area in order to reduce the extent of the encroachment. To reduce the amount of foliage blocking up the gutters to the rear of the building. To reduce the risk squirrels entering the roof area. To reduce the risk of damage to the roof and branches making contact with the roof area.

T955 - Sycamore: 10m to south of northern boundary: Reduce height by 2-3m and radial width by 1-2m. Brash to be chipped back on to access path. T5930 - Sycamore: Large mature tree, 4m north of bin store: Remove squirrel damaged branch at 18m over bins. T591 - Silver maple: Adjacent to gate and parking spaces, on west boundary: Remove tree T5019 - Sweet chestnut: Veteran tree overhanging covered walkway: Place a Cobra Ultrastatic brace 1m below the existing brace on the limb over the walkway. Crown lift secondary branches over the walkway, to give a clearance of 2m above the roof. T4879 & T4880 - Lime: Mature trees, within woodland, between driveway and east boundary: Remove basal growth and epicormic growth from the lower 1.5m of the trunk, to facilitate future inspection. T4940 - Robinia - Near visitor car park and main house: Remove tree T295 - Sycamore: Tree weighted over woodland path; extensive decay between buttress roots: Reduce in height by 4m approx. T4926 - Beech: 8m in from driveway, 4m to south of sub-station. Cavity on west side of the trunk at 8m: Reduce in height by 3-4m and radial width by 1-2m. T4923 - Beech: Large mature tree, 8m in from driveway with 30% of buttresses affected by K. deusta: Section fell to leave the trunk at 5m in height. T633 - Poplar: Western boundary; tree with excessive leverage over union at 9m over parking space: Reduce limb back to side branch beneath tight union. T296 - Pine: 2m in from west boundary fence; included union at 4m: Remove tree. T547 - Elm (dead): To north of car park, east of main drive. Remove tree. T4845 - Tulip tree: Large mature tree, to east of main drive: Length of lever arm (branch) above decayed 'elbow' at 18m to north is becoming excessive over main internal access road - reduce length of branch above decay by 4m, to alleviate. Reason: To comply with the recommendations of the recent tree survey.

SEE INFORMATIVES OWNERS PERMISSION MAY BE REQUIRED. Goat Willow on the east boundary. Cut back the low lateral branches to shorten them by 2.5m. These branches are low and just above car roof height on the driveway.

T1 - Cypress - Safely section fell to the ground and remove. Replant 1no replacement tree of the councils recommendation on the boundary. Reason - This tree is extremely large. It is blocking a lot of light to my property and is too near to the house. I don't want future issues with root damage to the foundations or the possibility of causing roof damage during a storm. It's not a good specimen tree and is non native tree. Its amenity value is low as the horse chestnut tree blocks the view of the Cypress from the road.
