T1 Ash - (Fraxinus excelsior). - Cut back a single large branch extending over the fence line and lower roof of the property. The branch will be target pruned back the Branch Collar. This is visualised on the attached files "LPA Application T1 Annotated Photograph" and "LPA Application T1 Annotated Photograph 2". - Whilst accessing the tree canopy, remove any dead/diseased or dying branches which may be immediately accessible. T2 - Horse Chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum). - Cut back a single large branch extending close to the fence line and lower roof of the property plus several other much smaller branches close to the top height of the fence. The branch will be target pruned back the Branch Collar. This is visualised on the attached files "LPA Application T2 Annotated Photograph" and "LPA Application T2 Annotated Photograph 2". - Whilst accessing the tree canopy remove any dead/diseased or dying branches which may be immediately accessible. All pruning work to be conducted in accordance with BS: 3998:2010. For each of the two trees in question a single branch is proposed for removal and some much smaller ones on tree T2: in both cases, the branches in question are low on the respective tree's canopies. As such the likelihood of nesting birds or other wildlife appears low. However, checks will be made prior to commencing any work and the work postponed or cancelled if necessary.
