The Old Barn, South View, Bamford, Derbyshire, S33 0DYAwaiting decisionT1 - Ash (Fraxinus excelsior), mature. Approx. 18 m height, 15 m crown spread, 90 cm DBH. Located at the gateway / turning circle corner at the rear of the property. Proposed works: 1. Reduce the previously cut left-hand limb back to a suitable growth point, removing the remainder of the branch, to take weight away from two cavities located approximately halfway along the limb. 2. 30% crown reduction across the whole tree, cutting back to suitable growth points. 3. Remove a small number of dead branches showing possible early signs of ash dieback. Symptoms are minimal and the tree is otherwise in reasonable condition. Reasons: The tree is large for its location and stands close to a new extension currently under construction. The limb reduction removes load from the cavities to reduce the risk of limb failure. The crown reduction brings the tree into proportion with its surroundings and the new building, and the deadwood removal reduces the risk of falling branches. Timing: Works to be carried out once the builders' scaffolding has been removed, following the end of the six-week notice period. Work by qualified arborists (one or two climbers plus ground staff) to BS 3998:2010. All arisings (chippings and timber) removed from site. No felling proposed, so no replacement planting is required.Conservation Area Tree WorkReceived 9 Nov 2026NP/TCA/1126/1125
