Proposal

T1 Chestnut This is a large mature tree with standing within 4m of the house. The crown extends over the house, car port adjacent access and neighbouring garden. There is a large wound on the house side with hollowing and decay at approx. 4m height and a large upright side limb with weak union. There are various old wounds and weak unions within the crown which has a heavy limb structure and there has been previous branch failures. There is a potential risk of further failure and damage to the property. The property owners are very concerned with the safety of the tree in relation to its location to the property and it causes them a great deal of worry and potential insurance issues. There is a better quality lime tree directly behind this tree which would benefit its removal and limit any visual effect. Fell the tree to maintain safety and benefit the adjacent Lime Tree. T2 Lime This is a mature tree of good form. The lower branches are rubbing on the oil tank. Lift the crown over this garden only to 4-5m height to clear the Oil Tank.
