Council planning record

Crown reduction - Oak Tree TPO DC/018/1 - T37 Given the structural condition of the tree with advanced basal decay and hollowing associated with Pseudoinonotus dryadeus, but retained vitality and current stability, significant crown reduction down to a final height of approximately 10 - 12m is recommended. Sides should be brought into suit, and as much of the inner canopy retained as possible. This will remove the tree from striking distance of the adjacent bungalow and leave a scaffold branch framework from which the tree will hopefully regenerate. This work should substantially reduce wind-loading and target occupancy risk while preserving the ecological and landscape value of the tree.
