1. Scots Pine. Crown thin and reduce lower canopy. Falling branches are a hazard. 2. Arbutus unedo. Reduce height. Prevent damage to retaining wall. Let light into dark house entrance. 3. Acacia/Robinia. Reduce height. Bring back into proportion for its close proximity to the house and boundary wall. Prevent further shedding of high branches onto paving for the house entrance below. 4. Tall Cypress trees. Thinned out with dying specimens removed. Infected with honey fungus, either already dead, or falling over. A hazard within the property, or to Sandy Lane. 5. Rhododendron. Cut dead sections back to ground level. Failing to thrive they appear to have honey fungus. 6. Two or three small Cyprus trees. Closely adjacent poorly established group, dying and/or fallen. Removal will allow an adjacent Oak to thrive. 7. Bay tree. Reduce height of tree-like extensions and re-establish as a large bush. Impinging on the driveway and preventing balanced growth of an adjacent Sweet Chestnut tree. 8. Three or Four Holly trees. One dead and others no longer healthy due to shade. Removal allows established nearby large Beech, Pine, Hornbeam and Oak trees to thrive. 9. Corsican Pine. Section fell to ground level. Dead tree with large falling branches that are a hazard to anyone on the former tennis court below. 10. Ash tree. Felled to ground level. Single tree, or closely adjacent group have die-back disease. 11. Holly seedlings. Cut stems to ground level. Open up the woodland for light and visual impact. 12. Twin-stemmed Corsican Pine. Raise the lower canopy and remove limbs that interfere with each stem's movement. Possible fitting of a Cobra bracing system between the two stems. Reduce weight and danger from limbs falling onto the former tennis court below. Provide support to the leaning stem if a bracing system is applied. 13. Sycamore seedlings. Cut stems to ground level. Prevent further undermining of the terrace wall. Open up the woodland for light and visual impact. 14. Leylandii. Remove poor, dead/windblown specimens. As approved in previous application. Prevent their roots periodically damaging the cesspit drainage. Reveal and enable the adjacent established Oak to thrive. Bring late afternoon sunlight into the property. 15. Liquid Amber. Remove leaning stem, retain main upright trunk. Prevent falling stem further damaging the nearby terrace wall. 16. Acacia/Robinia. Reduce height. Encourage new growth and establish a height balanced with the similar tree (T3) flanking the other end of the house. 17. Conifer. Section fell to ground level. Prevent damage to the high terrace wall on which it sits and against which its roots press. Removal will let the adjacent Acacia/Robinia to thrive ? possibly through reduction of its height. 18. Leyland Cyprus. Cut to ground level. Dying or thinning leaning stems. Replace with large variegated shrubs suitable for shaded area (St Catherines Conservation Area).
