Plan to dismantle a Cotoneaster to ground level, leave a 20ft trunk of an Ash tree suffering from dieback, and remove a Chestnut tree with canker to allow a nearby Beech tree to develop.
Proposal as recorded
T1 Cotoneaster - To safely dismantle to ground level the tree within the laurel bushes it is growing out across the pavement and towards the building this will allow the laurel to fill out and become an established hedge T2 Ash - To safely dismantle the large tree leaving a 20ft trunk to allow it to regenerate as the tree is suffering from ash dieback as it is clearly visible that there is dead wood within the top of the tree T3 Chestnut - To safely dismantle to ground level the tree that is suffering from chestnut canker, it is clearly visible there is a decay up the main trunk to a height of 15ft this generally compromises the stability of the tree and I recommend it to be removed which will allow the further development of the beech tree that is located next to it as per the last photograph
