Reduce Beech (Fagus sylvatica) in the Southern most corner of the property by 2m to create a rough 2.5m gap between the canopy and neighbouring building. Reduction works are to happen only to the lower aspect of the canopy and only to create the gap around the neighbouring property to reduce the risk of damage. Those works will be carried out following current British standards.

T2 - Fell to ground level and replace with Beech (Fagus sylvatica) T2 Elm has been subject to some severe pruning in the past and has since had a minimal amount of regrowth. A bracket is present at the base of T2 which has been identified as Rigidoporus ulmarius. With its history of creating vast cavities inside the buttress and targeting the root system, there is a serious worry for stability both now and in the future with the ongoing development of the fungi. T2 has very low amenity value in comparison to other trees in the area which are primarily Beech and Pine. A proposal for the replanting of a common beech would provide a much longer future of environmental benefits but also add to the amenity value of the area.
