Plan to remove a large mature Rowan tree and a very small Holly and Hawthorn tree. Reduce and reshape Hollies behind the shed by approximately 3m, prune back horizontal Oak branches over the rear fence by approximately 3m, and re-reduce an Oak tree to the top of the stem by approximately 6m. No replacements due to lack of space and large tree population.

Full Proposal

T1 large mature Rowan - Remove, tree multi stemmed at the base. Due to the formation, stem movement has caused extensive damage around the base allowing progressive rot. T2, T3 and T4 Hollies - Reduce and reshape trees behind the shed by *3m max, remaining *3m height. G1 x1 oak - Prune back horizontal Oak branches extending over the rear fence by *3m max remaining *3m. T5 Holly - Remove very small tree up against the fence in the top left corner. T6 Hawthorn - Remove very small tree on the middle level. T7 Oak - Re reduce tree to the top of stem. Removing *6m, remaining *2.5m stem. An historical pollard has resulting in a hollow void and rot down the top of stem which may be unable to provide structural support to a larger canopy. Risk is increased due to close proximity of the house. * Approximately Not replace removals due to lack of suitable space and large population of trees present. They are not visible nor valuable to the surrounding area.
