- May 2023Tree WorksTreesOutcome in report
1. Holm Oak (frontage, next to left side gate, large) Whilst on site I noticed that this tree is hollow at the base and has 3 fruiting bodies of the fungus Ganoderma adspersum present. The internal decay has created an 'Eiffel Tower effect' with the non functional heartwood having decayed away over time , leaving the surrounding sapwood. The Crown is very large and weighted heavily over the road, pavement and the neighbours house. I am concerned about the safety of this tree. I would strongly recommend the following specification of works is carried out within the next 6 months to reduce the 'sail area' in high winds and lessen weight on branch unions. Reduce in height by approx. 6m. Reduce back South -Western radial spread by approx. 4-5m to lessen weight on dog-legged limb with hazard beam. Reduce remainder of crown to balance and shape. Lift low branch over gates to upright sub branch . Crown lift all around to approx. 3m. remove major dead wood.

How to read this page
- How the estimate is made
- We don't publish an estimate for Down House because there is no EPC to tell the model the home's size and specification. The full report sets its records against recent comparable sales in BN2 7HA.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. No sale is recorded for Down House, which usually means it hasn't changed hands since 1995 or the sale was not for value. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- There is no Energy Performance Certificate on the public register for Down House. A valid EPC is needed to sell or let a home in England and Wales, and lasts 10 years.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 6 applications are matched to Down House. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 5 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BN2 7HA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Down House is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
