Cheriton Kiln Lane Stokenham TQ7 2SE

2033/26/TPOWorks to a TPO TreeApproved

Approved on 27 August 2026

Council decision: Tree Works Allowed

Approximate location: the centre of the postcode, not the exact property.

Proposal

T1: Oak - Reduce split limb where overhanging highway by 2-3 metres, Maximum Diameter of Cuts (MDC) 50mm. Tip prune any newly exposed limbs, MDC 25mm. To reduce the risk of failure to an acceptable level. T2: Ash - Dismantle in stages to near ground level. Tree is almost 100% dead and requires removal before limb or total tree failure occurs. T3: Ash - Reduce height and southern aspect by 1-2 metres, MDC 50mm. Remove deadwood capable of breaching highway. Tree has some long extending limbs overhanging the highway, we consider it prudent to reduce these limbs and the height to preserve this maturing tree. T4: Cryptomeria - Reduce low southern limb by approximately 1.5 metres, MDC 50mm. Reduce adjacent roadside stem to the west by 1.5 metres, MDC 50mm. Due to its growth habit the load on this limb is significant and posing an unacceptable risk of failure.
