1: Sycamore Tree which is 3 meters from the garage and has damaged the boundary wall and is at risk of falling. The cracks on the boundary wall have been increasing recently. Concerned about high winds may cause it to fall over the garage roof and cars on the drive way. Been advised by the tree surgeon it is best to fell this tree and stops roots from spreading. 2: Ash Tree which is on the boundary and 3 meters from the garage. This tree has a large number of branches expanding over the garage roof and also a large number of roots expanding towards the garage foundation. The tree surgeon has advised that this tree should be trimmed and have a haircut. This will protect the garage roof and slow the expansion of roof and provide safety.

Tree number - G1 Tree type - Elder and Honeysuckle Approx Height - 8m Location - Left hand boundary, to side of garage Service - Crown Reduction Work required- Prune all overhanging growth hard back to clear garage roof. Reduce height to match neighbouring hedge removing approximately 2-2.5m. Reason - As per customers wishes, To clear structure and ease future maintenance

(T1) Multi stem Sycamore- back left corner adjacent to garage/out building- Take down to ground level as it is touching the garage and out building, root system lifting up the pathway where public walk. Limbs are failing and falling on roof.

Sycamore - by garage - crown lift over garage (3m over garage roof line) Hollies by garage - reduce by half in height (reduce by 5-6m to safeguard the integrity of the garage) Hedgeline - on side boundary - (trim back the face by 0.5-1m and crown lift by 2.5m to facilitate for new planting) Laurel - Cut back and crown lift (by 2m) Yew - Cut back and crown lift (by 2m)

1.Front Garden,Side Adjoining 53 Russell Rd Sycamore tree have overgrown 100% far higher than the house structure. We propose removing all dead wood and trimming the overall height to 30-50% along this boundary line to restore safe distance from the house and remove risk of falling branches in 53 RS driveway. The trees will be shaped with the sycamore higher than the conifers but allow the conifers to grow back and allow sun on the grass. 2.Front Garden,Side Adjoining 53 Russell Rd - Illustrates fallen dead branches which hit the roof and wall structure. 3.Front Garden,Side Adjoining 53 Russell Rd 4.Front Garden,Side Adjoining 53 Russell Rd 5.Front Garden,Side Adjoining 53 Russell Rd Image 3, 4 and 5 Illustrates fallen dead branches covering the ground.

A large willow tree stood between these trees but collapsed 2 years ago. The willow tree impacted the growth of the oaks, causing an imbalance in growth, with the trees leaning to one side.We propose removing all dead wood, low branches and trimming slightly to rebalance. 13.Rear Garden Dead apple tree to be removed 14.Rear Garden Dead falling pear tree to be removed. 15.Rear Garden Fallen oak branch with garden waste to be removed.

T1 - Swedish Whitebeam (Sorbus x intermedia) - Rear garden, centre Approx Height - 5m.

Crown Reduction to T5 English Oak (Category A): undertake 2 metre crown reduction to improve light levels as well as reducing future stress on the foundations of the new extension. Removal of deadwood and improving safety. Removal of Ornamental Cherry T2 (Category C): T2 is a semi-mature cherry tree close to the garage, its rooting area is notably poor being surrounded by paving and driveway. It has slender form and its canopy touches the garage roof-line. T2 is in close proximity of the house so its removal will reduce future stress on the foundations of the house and garage. We propose the removal and replanting of a new replacement cherry. Phased removal of G3 Cypress Group (Category C): The trees were planted to create screening and privacy, but have not been height managed and are now excessively tall. The trees have large stems, some less than 2m from the boundary walls and close to the foundations of the house and not sustainable. The trees' canopies touch the house and roof-line, creating excessive shade on the south eastern side of the garden. G3 cypress are still not mature and can be expected to continue vigorous growth, potentially creating issues and stresses on the house foundations. We propose a 'phased tree removal' of G3 cypress group over several years. The removal of G3 will have many advantages, including improving light levels to the eastern garden and will be highly beneficial to nearby groups of English Yew (G2) G1 Boundary Cypress Trees (Category C): This linear group of cypress located on the south western boundary, has been left to grow excessively tall over a period of time and requires maintenance. Reduce their height by 50% to allow more light into the garden and create a formal 2m hedge.
