Tree Survey Report Property Name: 6a Bridge End Dorchester on Thames Date of Survey: [30/10/23] Tree Identification: Common Name: English Yew Scientific Name: Taxus baccata Tree ID Number: N/A Location: Address 6a Bridge End Dorchester on Thames GPS Coordinates N/a Position on Property: Rear garden Tree Dimensions: Height: 11 meters Spread :- North 4.5 meters East 4.5 meters South 5.0 meters West 5.0 meters General Tree Health: Overall, the Taxus baccata tree appears to be in good health. It exhibits a typical and well-maintained appearance for its age and species. Tree Condition: Bark: The tree's bark is smooth, with a dark brown to reddish-brown coloration. Foliage: The yew tree displays dense, dark green foliage, which is typical for a Taxus baccata. Limbs and Branches: The limbs and branches appear sturdy and well-distributed throughout the crown. But due to size of the crown and shading and berry drop in neighbours garden we would like to reduce by 25% and improve overall shape with crown lift and thinning. (Reduce by 1m in height and 1m lateral spread and lift crown from ground level by 0.5m). Roots: Root exposure or damage was not observed at ground level. Maintenance Recommendations: 1. Pruning:Regular pruning should be conducted to maintain the desired shape and size of the yew tree. Pruning should be carried out during the dormant season to minimize stress to the tree. Future Considerations: The English Yew tree is a valuable ornamental tree, and its long-term maintenance and health should be a priority to preserve its aesthetic and ecological value to the property.
