    Tree ref: T02 - mature common Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) Location: the tree is situated 2-2.5m from the north east gable end of the house, as indicated on the attached plan. Proposed works: section-fell the Ash tree to ground level, safely dismantle and remove all woody debris, brash and arisings from the site. Justification: the tree is infected with advanced Ash Dieback with the canopy exhibiting significant thinning, leaf loss and deadwood. Due to the progressive and destructive nature of the disease, the structural integrity of the timber is compromised. Ash wood can become brittle when infected and a number of the branches overhang and are in falling distance of the grade 2 listed thatched house and garden as well as the historic grave sites and popular foot routes surrounding Grade 1 listed Dorchester Abbey. I am concerned that the tree creates an unacceptable and escalating health and safety hazard. Remedial pruning, deadwooding or reduction will not halt the trees decline or mitigate the long-term risk. Complete removal is the only viable and sustainable option. The removal of the tree will have a negligible long-term impact on the visual amenity of the conversation area. To further mitigate the loss of canopy cover and to support local bIodiversity I propose to plant one replacement tree of native species resilient to the local climate, in the next available planting window. I've tried to indicate dead/overhanging branches in photos attached by highlighting in red. I hope it helps. Thank you.

    Common Beech (1) - Whole crown reduction by 1.5m, to reduce overgrowth, remove dead or damaged branches smaller than 4cm diameter, prune to provide room for overhead service cables. This is a large mature beech tree approximately 18m tall, now with a crown spread in excess of 8m. Although the stem and basal area are in good overall condition, the crown is overgrown and prone to dropping branches (smaller than 4cm in diameter). The crown has overhead service cables running through it that are being affected. We would like to have a licensed professional tree surgeon attend to the crown: 1. Reduce the overall crown by 1 to 1.5m 2. Thin areas where the crown is overgrown 3. Remove some dead or damaged branches (below 4cm diameter) 4. Prune areas that impact the overhead service cables to give the cables and the tree more room.

    Walnut tree (W1). Trim branches extending north over garden. (Remove the lower five branches back to main trunk, Reduce canopy/crown back to 3m from trunk. This tree "fell over" several years ago but has continued to grow successfully. Over the past 15 years the canopy has expanded considerably to the north, and now casts a shadow (when in leaf) across most of the width of the garden. Due to the uneven growth pattern, the centre of gravity continues to move further from the base, presumably creating ultimately a risk of collapse under its own weight.
