Proposal

T1- Swamp Cypress located in the driveway next to the garage. SW facing over extended branch overhanging the footpath. 3m up the stem SW facing to reduce back into strong growth points to relieve the end weight of the branch overhanging the footpath by 4m. various branches have snapped out and one is still hanging in the tree causing concern to the client given the trees location. NW facing - 6m up over extended branch overhanging the car park and phone line to be reduced back by 2m to rebalance and reduce end weight.T2- Beech Located next to T1. SW facing 1.5m up the stem. Another over extended branch growing through the Holly trees over the footpath. to reduce the branch back by 3m into strong growth points.T3- Birch located next to T2. This leaning Birch is being suppressed by the larger Beech behind it and the feature tree in front. it has a heavy lean and any recommended works would be detrimental to the trees health given the species and the amount taken off to try and make safe. I have proposed to have this tree felled to ground level to eliminate the trees competing, allowing the other 2 to grow in their full form. T4- Neighbouring Oak tree. (overhangs from 'The Rectory, Kennel Lane, Windlesham, GU20 6AA') This Oak tree that overhangs the clients tennis court has been subject to competing with a neighbouring tree which has in time been felled. this has led to the Oak tree becoming completely one sided with all the weight leaning over the clients tennis court. Proposed overall reduction by up to 3m to rebalance and remove the overhanging weight. The tree is approximately 15m tall with a 7m spread.
