Council planning record

T1 Oak tree located on the rear boundary within TPO 06/21it was noted there is a substantial decay pocket located on the trunk just above the crown break, approximately 5 metres from ground level.Due to the size and location of the decay point and the leverage effect due to the form of the tree I feel it poses a risk of failure. I advise the tree be removed down to ground level.As the tree is bifurcated at ground level I consider that the remaining stems are also removed so they are not left exposed and then also subject to failure. T2 Ash tree located on the rear boundary within TPO 06/21 adjacent to T1 The tree has been historically pollarded and now has become lapsed. There are signs of dysfunction within the canopy and a large wound on the trunk at approximately 5 metres from ground level next to the lowest limb. It appears to have been caused by a large limb failure, the tree is attempting to compartmentalise however due to the evidence of decay and the overall condition of the tree I feel it best to remove the tree down to ground level.
