T1 (Silver Birch) – Located within the natural spring. Given the history of windthrow on the site and the unsuitable growing conditions, the tree cannot be safely retained. T2 (Silver Birch) – Located within the natural spring and leaning at approximately 45 degrees over neighbouring property. The lean and site conditions create a significant risk of failure onto third-party land. T3 (Monterey Pine) – Located within the natural spring and leaning at approximately 45 degrees over neighbouring property. The combination of lean, species characteristics and unstable ground conditions presents an unacceptable risk to neighbouring property. T4 (Pine) – Located within the natural spring, leaning at approximately 45 degrees and currently resting against T5. The tree is structurally compromised and dependent on another failing tree for support. T5 (Silver Birch) – Located within the natural spring. The tree has a snapped top and is currently supporting the lean of T4. The additional loading and existing structural defect mean the tree cannot be safely retained. The proposed felling is required on safety grounds to remove the risk of harm to persons and damage to neighbouring property. Retention of any of the trees is not considered a viable option given the combination of site conditions, existing defects and inter-dependence between T4 and T5. Replacement Planting We are willing to plant suitable replacement trees in a more appropriate location away from the natural spring and neighbouring property boundaries, in accordance with any conditions the Council may attach to the consent. We would welcome discussion with the Tree Officer regarding suitable species and planting locations.
