    T1 (Mature Birch): Crown reduce by up to 3m on height and all sides of the tree. To reduce height from 14m to 11m and width from 16m to 10m approximately. To also crown thin by 15%, dead wood and the major limb from near ground level on the southern side of the tree. To reduce back to laterals. Reason: To increase light to the conservatory underneath and also to the neighbours swimming pool area. Due to the position of this tree we have reduced this tree on at least four occasions. The larger reduction points have weakened due to decay and to reduce the weight and leverage on the end growth. T2,T3, T4, T5 (Small Birch): Reduce height by 3-4m (from 10m to 6-7m) and sides by 1m (from 4m to 3m). T6, T7 (Rowan): Reduce height by 1.5m (from 6m to 4.5m) and width from 4m to 3m. Reason: These trees (T2 to T7) are shooting up and preventing light from entering the house, making it very dark on the ground floor.

What these statistics cover

These figures describe applications collected by PlanningTrack for Guildford Borough Council, across all dates currently available. They are a partial dataset, rather than an authority-wide performance measure. The date range does not establish continuous historical coverage.

The approval percentage is approved records divided by approved plus refused records. Pending, withdrawn and unknown outcomes are excluded. No percentage is shown until there is an approved or refused record.
