Proposal
T1 - Oak The oak tree is a large, mature specimen approximately 22 m in height, with an overall crown spread of around 8 m on the southern aspect. The tree previously lost its main central stem, and a substantial amount of subsequent regrowth has developed over the property. This regrowth now forms the dominant crown structure on the southern side.I am applying to reduce the overall height of the tree by approximately 4 m (from 22 m to around 18 m) and to reduce the southern crown spread by approximately 4 m ( from 8 m to 4 m). This will retain an even, balanced crown with an approximate 4 m overhang onto my garden.Reasons for the proposed works:Management of historic structural defects: The historic loss of the central stem has resulted in asymmetric regrowth now extending over the property. Reduction will help manage loading on these secondary limbs, reducing the risk of structural failure and improving long-term crown stability.Improvement of light levels to the property and garden: The current canopy significantly shades the southern side of the house and garden throughout the day. A modest reduction will allow more natural light into the living areas and garden without harming the character or amenity value of the tree.
