Oliver House School 7 Nightingale Lane SW4 9AH

Proposal

Gardeners recently installed some raised planters. During installation these two trees suffered damage (cambian damage at base of trunk + root compaction) and both trees have died. They have become brittle and are at risk of collapse, leading to potential risk to people or property. Suggested work: - fell to ground level - grind out stumps to a depth of 300mm to allow for replanting This 18m bald cypress tree has previously been reduced but not for many years. There is a 4m snapped limp overhanging the road around 14m high in the canopy. The edge of the canopy hangs low so that in summer the school sign cannot be read from the road. Suggested work: - remove the snapped hanger from the canopy - remove substantial deadwood - lift canopy all round to 6m This 12m mature lime tree has previously been pollarded, cyclical prune now due. Suggested work: - reduce all round back to previous reduction points, equating to 2-2.5m reduction
