Minor work is being requested on six trees within the TPO area referenced. A sketch diagram is attached. The trees are marked with pentagons labelled 1 - 6. The six trees are adjacent to our garden fence and overhang a flat roof over outbuildings and patio area. Growth from the trees overhangs felted roof and will abrade/damage this. In addition there is the potential for pressure/friction damage to the fence. The work intended is to cut the overhanging branches back to the main stem/trunk of the tree. All branches are less than 2-3 inches in diameter. Tree 1 is a sycamore that has been previously pollarded/coppiced around 2 foot above the ground. Vigorous regrowth from the stool is leaning against the fence and over the flat roof. Pruning to prevent property damage.Tree 2 is a cyprus with a tree ivy growing through it. This also overhangs the flat roof. Pruning to prevent property damage.Tree 3 is a field maple. Branches from it are pressing against the fence and flat roof. Pruning to prevent property damage.Tree 4 - This is a young sycamore that is growing between the stems of tree 5. Branches overhang the fence and flat roof. Pruning to prevent property damage.Tree 5 - Field maple. Growing with the sycamore between its stems. Overhangs the fence. Pruning to prevent property damage.Tree 6 - Field maple.
