Erection of single storey garden room within rear garden.
We would like to reduce the large Acacia tree (T1) in the front garden as it has considerably outgrown its location and in need of being reduced. Some of the overlong branches need to be reduced by about 3 metres due to their length. One of the branches growing over the pavement and road needs to be reduced significantly for safety purposes and to be cut back from the road. The canopy also needs to be thinned out by about 20% to allow for more light in the canopy and for the health of the tree including crossing branches. Reducing the tree will also minimise root expansion due to the close proximity of the tree to the house.
T1 Lime Tree - repollard to previous pruning points as part of routine maintenance. This will take the tree from approx 12 meters to approx 10.

T1 Holm Oak (Quercus ilex): H12/S9m. Reduce 3?4m (40%) to prior points; cut back from building for 2m clearance. Finish H8?9/S5?6m. Crown contacts building, risking render/gutter/roof abrasion, debris, damp and moss. Prevents nuisance while retaining dense rounded form, amenity/screening; species tolerates hard reduction. T3 Horse Chestnut: H15/S11m. Reduce 2?3m to prior points; remove epicormic growth to crown break. Finish H12?13/S8?9m. As T2: removes weak regrowth, restores structure and managed envelope. T4 Horse Chestnut: H14/S10m. Reduce 2?3m (30%); crown lift for 2m clearance above fence. Finish H11?12/S7?8m. Lower limbs contact/overhang fence, causing damage and restricting access. Lift removes conflict; reduction manages crown/end-weight while retaining health/form. T6 False Acacia (Robinia pseudoacacia): H15/S11m. Reduce 2?3m (30%); remove epicormic growth to crown break. Finish H12?13/S8?9m. Brittle species; weak regrowth increases sudden branch-failure risk. Reduces failure risk/wind loading and restores managed size. T7 Lime (Tilia ? europaea): H14/S10m. Reduce 2?3m (30%) to prior points; remove epicormic growth to crown break. Finish H11?12/S7?8m. Weak post-reduction/pollard regrowth is prone to shedding. Restores a manageable, sound crown consistent with past management. T9 Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus): H13/S9m. Reduce 2–3m (30%) to prior points; crown lift to 4m. Finish H10-11/S6-7m. Maintains managed size and pedestrian/vehicle clearance while retaining structure/amenity. T10 False Acacia: H14/S10m. Reduce 2–3m (30%); crown lift to 4m. Finish H11–12/S7–8m. Brittle wood/end-weight warrants reduction to lower failure risk; 4m lift provides access clearance.
T2 Horse Chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum): H16/S12m. Reduce 2?3m (30%) to prior points; remove all epicormic growth to crown break. Finish H13?14/S9?10m. Dense poorly attached regrowth is failure-prone. Restores structure, reduces end-weight and retains managed size and health/amenity. T5 Cherry Plum (Prunus cerasifera): H8/S6m. Reduce 2?3m (30%); remove epicormic growth to crown break. Finish H6/S4m. Dense regrowth has created a congested/poorly structured crown. Restores balance and reduces wind load/end-weight. T8 Black Mulberry (Morus nigra): H7 S8m. Sensitively reduce laterals 1?2m (20%) to clear lawn/roadside. Finish H6?7/S6?7m; clearance 2.5?3m. Minimal pruning retains characteristic low spreading gnarled form, amenity and heritage value. T13 London Plane (Platanus × hispanica): H18 S14m. Reduce 3 to 4m (30%); 2.5m clearance from buildings/walls; thin 20%; remove dead/rubbing/crossing branches. Finish H14 15/S9 10m. Crown encroaches on structures, risking wall/gutter/roof damage and restricting light. Reduction/clearance restores separation; thinning improves light/reduces wind load; removing defective growth reduces decay risk/improves structure. Retains vigour/significant amenity.
