Council planning record

T1 - English Oak - Reduce and reshape the smaller twisting stem only by 2-3 metres. The tree has grown with an upright stem and a stem that twists around it. The shape of the tree is very poor and the reduction will bring the tree back into a better form and bring the canopy of the tree back away from the neighbouring property T2 - Scots pine - Remove dead and broken branches for safety. T3 - Holm Oak - Fell to ground level and replace - the tree is located on the fence line and very close to the neighbouring house. The tree has a very poor asymmetrical form towards the house it also has a large twist at the base of the tree which has produced reaction wood. Reaction wood is formed due to movement or stress in a particular part of a tree. The tree will always be an issue with the proximity to the house and will always need constant pruning. This still doesn't remove the issue of the twist in the stem at the base of the tree which could fail. The tree is not visible for a public vantage point and the fore low on amenity.
