Official description

T1 - Mature bay tree. Tree is leaning against an old stone boundary wall, on the other side of which is a building owned by a neighbour. The tree is growing in the only direction it can to chase light and has ended up heavily weighted, with the entire canopy overhanging the property. It shows signs of stress or damage at the base due to a dry cambium layer and peeling bark, and the tree is co-dominant from ground level to approx 4-5ft. I do not believe the tree to be entirely sound in itself and it is relying on the wall to remain standing. Application is to dismantle the large stems to ground level, or close to, and leave the new, smaller growth at the base to form a new tree that can be more easily managed. T2 - Semi-mature chestnut, the smallest in a row of 3 trees. Tree has no leaf or any signs of budding, appears brittle and unlikely to recover. Overhanging driveway. Dismantle tree to leave a 3.5-4m habitat stem, with final cuts made at the first union.
