    G1 Elder & Sycamore - Fell to ground level. Reasons for the works: The self-set trees are located between Sainsbury’s and the pub within a narrow 0.5 metre-wide channel. Due to the close proximity of the trees to the building, the crowns are now in contact with the roof of the pub, where they have already caused damage to roof tiles and significantly obscured a skylight, adversely affecting the structure.

  10. Decision MadeP26/S3837/TCA

    T1 Weeping Willow - Re-Pollard – Remove all secondary growth back to the previously established pollard points on the main scaffold limbs. G2 Crack Willow – Multi-stemmed tree comprising three primary stems - Re-Pollard – Remove all secondary growth back to the previously established pollard points on the main scaffold limbs. G3 Holly x2 - Fell to ground level in a safe and controlled manner. T4 London Plane - Pollard – Pollard the tree at a height of approximately 8 metres above ground level, making suitable finishing cuts to the primary and secondary scaffold limbs to establish a framework from which the tree can be managed as a pollard over the long term. Additionally, remove the two lowest secondary scaffold limbs back to the main stem to provide suitable clearance above the Yew archway. G5 Holly x2 - Fell to ground level in a safe and controlled manner. T7 English oak - Fell to ground level in a safe and controlled manner. Reasons for Works: T1 & G2 – The proposed works are in line with the previous management of these trees. The secondary regrowth has now established to a point where the likelihood of branch failure is increasing. The works are therefore recommended to maintain the trees within their established management cycle and reduce the likelihood of failure. G3 & G5 – These trees are in a state of decline and are heavily clad in Ivy, limiting their suitability for continued long-term retention. Removal is therefore recommended. T4 – This tree is situated centrally within a green archway formed by Yew trees on either side. The long-term management intention has been to allow the tree to establish before introducing it into a pollarding cycle. The proposed works will establish a suitable pollard framework, allowing the tree to be managed in this form over the long term while complementing its setting within the archway. T7 – The tree is situated on the roadside boundary and oversails both the public footway and carriageway. The tree is in a terminal state of decline, increasing the likelihood of branch or structural failure. Given its condition and proximity to frequently used targets, removal is recommended to manage the associated risk.
