- P16/S4361/TCA3 x Leylandii Reduce crown of three leylandii. Reduce height of Yew hedge and remove self-seeded Elder, Holly etc. Height to be reduced from approx 21' to 16'.

- P17/S4493/TCA1 x tree Please see attached photos. The fallen limb has been removed. The photos indicate one of the remaining limbs which is liable to failure due to the lopsided growth. The professional view is that the growth is likely to increase the chance of failure at the junction (also photographed) due to the weight of vegetation on one side only . Additionally the final photo shows the decay to the core at the junction; this is most likely the cause of the failure of the fallen (now removed) limb. Also to reduce crown by approximately 2-3m.

- P19/S3749/TCALeylandii Remove one Leylandii which is located close to the property. As is typical of leylandii vigorous growth has resulted in it becoming overpowering and taking excessive light.

- P22/S0791/TCACedar - top section snapped by storm Eunice. Reduce some of the upper lateral growth to dissuade these branches from running away and becoming problem branches in the future but this would be relatively minor pruning work.No obj CA works0application · Linked by the council
- P22/S1540/TCAAcacia - The proposed works would be to reduce the lateral (and upright if needed) growth of the dead branches back to the nearest sufficient live growth to maintain form and vigour. The tree appears to be in decline and while being prudent to remove the larger pieces of dead wood towards the road, it would also be a useful exercise in monitoring the trees decline in the coming months.No obj CA works0application · Linked by the council

- P24/S1664/TCAT1- Wellengtonia (Giant sequoia). Carry out selective branch reduction on any over extended lateral growth to help mitigate the chance of tear out; evidence of tear out is visible using binoculars in the upper crown. All branches to be reduced would be cut back to suitable growth points and reduced by no more than 3-4m (this reduction work would bring the more rangy branches back inline with the majority of the canopy). Crown raise the tree to a height of 5m above ground level to prevent the low crown ultimately touching the ground and to open up the vista. Install a flexible 8 ton brace system at an appropriate height in the crown; two thirds above the lowest fork would be the advisable installation point. While the steel brace already in place is positioned too low in the crown, it is advised that it is retained. TG2- Remove the large pieces of dead wood and climbing inspect the crowns of X3 Sycamore and X2 Horse chestnut trees on the rear boundary of the site. Inspect the crown of the ash tree on the rear boundary for any signs of ash die backNo obj CA works0application · Linked by the council
