T1 - Acer a) Prune branches to achieve 2.5 metre clearance from neighbouring properties b) Reduce crown by 5m leaving height 10 metres and 5 metres T2 - Beech a) Cut 3 lowest branches back to main trunk on south side leaving 3 on north side. To encourage growth of shrubs and small trees below on the south side c) Reduce crown by 10 metres leaving crown 6 metres wide and 10 metres high. The present tree height is 20 metres and will be 10 metres which is the distance to the two houses of nos. 10 and 12 should it fall from the bank, being more weighted on the south side. The crown will be 10 metres high with width being 5 metres T3 - Cherry a) Visible damage to some branches on west side underlapping T2 caused by touching by branches of T2. Pruning as necessary to obtain clearance from T2. b) reduce crown by 10 metres from 20 metres to same height as T2 to encourage lower growth and leave height of tree as 10 metres. T4 - Silver Birch a) reduce crown by 1.5 metres to get clearance from power lines. b) prune lateral branch by 1.5 metres leaving 1.5 metres to trunk to promote new growth from the lower trunk to improve appearance and shape. The tree height remaining will be 5 metres. The remaining crown will be 2m wide. T5 - Ash a) Coppice to ground level due to Ash die-back disease. T6 - Beech a) Reduce crown by 3 metres to reduce height from 18 metres to 15 metres b) Raise crown by 2 metres to provide clearance over hazel hedgerow. Remaining crown will be 10 metres high and 8 metres wide. T7 - Hazel a) Coppice 5 of the multiple stems on the south side to stop smothering of a mature Acer. b) Reduce crown of remaining two substantial (200 mm diameter) stems by 5 metres from 7 metres leaving the height of the remaining stems alongside the footway and road to 2 metres bringing it to hedge height.
