REAR: ONE Golden rain tree (T1) CROWN REDUCTION Ht by 2m from 10m to 8m Spread by 2m from 7m to 5m. REASON: he upper and outer crown carries a significant amount of dieback, with dead and declining shoots evident across much of the canopy, indicating a loss of vitality in the outer crown. The dead material is retained over the garden, where it presents a foreseeable risk of shedding onto an area in regular use. The proposed works take the crown back to live growth, removing the dead and declining wood and reducing end-weight on the weakened outer branches. ONE Strawberry tree (T2) Ht 6m FELL to ground level. REASON: Retain the basal sucker to regrow as a replacement. A strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo) in the rear garden, in poor structural condition. The crown has become congested and tangled with the adjoining plum, with crossing, rubbing and declining stems and a dense mass of weak growth. The crown has a lot of dieback and the remainder is in decline. Felling is proposed to remove the failing main stems, while a vigorous sucker at the base is to be retained and allowed to grow on as the replacement. ONE Plum tree (T3) LATERAL REDUCTION by 2m from 7m to 5m. REASON: mature multi-stemmed plum in the rear garden. The stems lean and the lateral branches have extended and become heavily end-weighted, placing increased leverage on the unions and the main stems. Reducing the weight-loaded laterals shortens these levers and reduces the risk of branch or stem failure, while retaining the tree's form and its contribution to the garden

Construction of a rear extension featuring a sloped coated metal edging to suit existing material and a set of 5 coated aluminum doors at 29 Linchmere Road, SE12.
