For tree removal Catherine Hill Bay, known heritage information helps frame a proposal that suits the property. The tree's condition and your plans can then be discussed in that context. Provide the relevant listing details rather than assuming planted trees are exempt.
The trees of Catherine Hill Bay
An established ornamental tree can contribute to a garden's appearance as well as its shade. Describe its present condition and the particular concern rather than assuming a planted specimen is suitable for removal because it is non native.
Earlier pruning, old wounds and changes near the base can help explain the current canopy. Include the whole tree in photographs alongside closer views of the affected growth.
A retention option may involve selected maintenance instead of a complete garden change. The assessment should consider available growing space and the branches involved, while distinguishing observed damage from a preference for more light.

Check usable space along the approach instead of measuring only the gate and explain where equipment or timber would have to turn rather than travel directly to the work area.
