6 Holbrook Gardens, Aldenham, Watford, WD25 8AB

Two large sycamore trees at the border with Aldenham Social Club car park, overhanging and touching our house, and overhanging where we park our cars at the end of Red Lion Close. Smaller branches come down in wind on cars. Tree 1 in sketch overhangs cars is approx 12.8m (42ft). We propose a crown reduction by one third 4.3m to approx 8.5m. See photo Tree 2 overhangs and touches house. Approx 9m (30ft) we propose a one third reduction by 3m to 6m, and remove branches touching our house. See photo

Two large Conifers to be removed and stumps ground to the left hand size of the property

T1 Beech (2 limbs)- Reduce the identified eastern lateral limb over Church Lane by apporx 6 metres, leaving a final length of approximately 8m,removing the overhang of the road and footway. Following a recent limb failure (after the report was written), it is suggested that a limb overhanging the road, is also reduced by approximately 3.5m, leaving a final length of approximately 8m. T2 Sycamore (tag 1791)- Reduce to an 8m monolith above the stem cavity, retaining the standing stem as habitat. T4 Lime (tag 1789) -Reduce the crown by approx 2m, so that the final crown spread is approximately 6m and the height is approx. 14m G1 - crown lift, overhanging public foothpath and road so that the final height is 2.5m over the path and 6m over the road to give clear pedestrian and vehicular access.
