T1 - Rotten stump with clematis - fell. Not directly replaced, but hedge along road to be rejuvenated.T2 - Rotten stump - fell T3 - Pear - Prune as no attention for years and is too big and needs it for the tree's own health. Pear pruning: currently around 6m tall tree, 3m width at widest point. Require permission for crown reduction to about 4.5m tall and 1.5 wide.T4 - Cyprus - fell because out of keeping with the garden and the area, if replaced will be with something such as a holm oak.T5 - Crab Apple - Prune as no attention for years and is too big and needs it for the tree's own health. Crab apple pruning: Currently around 5m tall, 3m wide. Require permission for crown reduction to about 4m tall and 1.5 wide(T8) Ash - Ash huge and overcrowding/squashing perotia and quince. Ash needs 3/4 low branches lopping off. Ash - around 12+ m tall, 8m wide. Lowest 3 branches to be lopped from the trunk, they are about 3 metres above ground level, growing out from very close to each other. Branches 15cm in diameter. They extend in an arc downwards for about 4 metres, in the same direction. So three whole 0.15x 4 metre branches taken off. This would balance the Ash, as the other side of the tree has branches starting higher and only about 2m in length. Allow light to perotia and quince and stop pressure and weight of branches on those trees.
That can mean the property has never traded since the registry began publishing in 1995, was a new build that hasn't been registered yet, or is held in the same hands long-term.
