Revised tree works in a conservation area: T1 Loquat Height: Approx. 5.5m Condition: Fair physiological and structural condition. Crown lift to 2.5m T2 Yucca Height: Approx. 5m Condition: Good overall condition. Crown lift to 2.5m T3 & T4 Pear Height: Approx. 4m Condition: Poor condition. Observations: Both trees display significant dieback affecting the lower crown, with vitality largely restricted to the upper canopy where fruit production continues. Their condition indicates declining long-term vitality. Fell and replace with appropriate planting T5 Fig Height: Approx. 5m Condition: Good condition. Observations: Vigorous growth typical of the species. The crown now extends substantially beyond the property boundaries into three neighbouring gardens and requires ongoing management. The tree was originally planted approximately 0.3m from the northern boundary corner, making long-term growth incompatible with its location. Fell and replace with appropriate evergreen boundary planting T6 Olive Height: Approx. 5.5m Condition: Fair condition. Crown lift to 2.5m Replacement will comprise a combination of appropriately scaled ornamental trees, shrub planting and evergreen screening to the rear boundary. Replacement planting will be selected to remain proportionate to the scale of the garden and will be proactively maintained to avoid the need for similar works in the future.
