1.0 Instructions/Scope

1.1 Silverback Arboricultural Consultancy have been instructed to compile an arboricultural report

containing tree survey, tree constraints plan, arboricultural impact assessment, tree protection

plan and arboricultural method statement regarding trees within the grounds of Dorothy House,

Winsley, Bradford on Avon. This report is intended to accompany a planning application

relating to proposed additional car parking area at the site. This document has been produced to

demonstrate that the implications of the proposed development, in relation to the arboricultural

and landscape value of the trees on the site, have been fully considered during the detailed

design process.

1.2 Recommendations for the safeguarding of trees in close proximity to development are set out in,

BS5837:2012 Trees in relation to design, demolition and construction – Recommendations.

We have therefore carried out the assessment of the trees in accordance with that document

1.3 Specifically, this report and the accompanying information are supplied in order to:

Identify the constraints that trees on and adjacent to the site present to the development of the

site, in order to inform the site design process.

Present information regarding the above ground constraints (crown spreads) and below ground

constraints (Root Protection Areas – RPAs), in a Tree Schedule and on a Tree Constraints Plan

Assess the impact of the proposed development on the trees on or adjacent to the site, and the

impact that retained trees will have on the site post development

Identify trees to be removed, trees to be retained and specify measures necessary to protect

retained trees during the demolition and construction phases of the development

Recommend necessary remedial tree works to be undertaken to trees that will be retained prior to

commencement of the demolition and construction phases of the development

Present information regarding the location of protective barriers or fencing and ground

protection on a Tree Protection Plan

Identify special engineering, excavation or protection measures intended to minimise the impact

on retained trees where the site design layout requires a breach of the Root Protection area, (RPA)


/16



t: 01454 227458 m: 07775576738


Provide an Arboricultural Method Statement for the recommended works detailing measures

which should be implemented to protect retained trees during the demolition and construction

phases of the development.

1.4 This report is based on a ground level assessment of the trees. Except where stated, all

dimensions are estimated. We were not presented with any information on the soil type and no

soil samples have been taken. An arboricultural consultant visited the site on Tuesday 16th

August 2016. The weather was bright with good visibility.

1.5 Documents Provided

Topographic survey

Proposed site layout dwg No A096365-GA01, GA02

2.0 Survey Methodology

2.1 The survey includes tree and shrubs with a stem diameter over 75mm at 1.5m height, located

within the area shown on the plan included in this report.

2.2 All inspections were made from ground level with the use of binoculars, sounding hammer and

metal probe where necessary, using the Visual Tree Assessment method (Mattheck & Breloer

1994). The presence and condition of bark and stem wounds, cavities, decay, fungal fruiting

bodies and any structural defects that could affect the structural integrity of the trees have been

noted.

2.3 Tree numbers have been noted on the plan. The following details were recorded for each tree

and are included in the tree schedule sheets accompanying this report:

Number: an identity number for each tree, prefixed with a ‘T’ which cross references locations

shown on the plan with the tree survey sheets. Where a number of trees, normally of the same

species, are located close together and are similar in character and requirements, they have been

treated as a Group under a single Number, prefixed with a ‘G’

Species: common name and botanical name in italics

Tree Height: approximate height in metres (potential height in brackets)

Stem Diameter: diameter measured in millimetres, taken at 1.5m above ground. Where the tree

is multi-stemmed the diameter is calculated in accordance with BS5837:2012

(# estimated dimensions for off site or inaccessible trees)

3.0 Report Limitations

3.1 Trees are living, dynamic organisms that can be affected by external conditions. It is therefore

not possible to state with any certainty that a tree is safe.

3.2 No internal decay devices, or other invasive tools to assess tree condition, were used. No soil

excavation or root inspection was undertaken.

3.3 This report has not considered the effect that trees or vegetation may have on the structural

integrity of adjacent buildings or structures.

3.4 The survey contained within this report is not a tree safety inspection. It has been carried out in

order to inform the planning process. Where clear and obvious hazards have been observed,

these have been addressed in the recommendations contained within the tree schedule sheets

(appendix 1). A full assessment of the levels of risk posed by trees would be informed by

considering site use together with hazards present within the aerial parts of a tree(s). Changes in

site use are likely to occur during, and result from, the proposed development. In the light of

these changes, regular tree risk assessments are advised.

3.5 Tree condition can change rapidly, the recommendations contained within this report are based

on the condition of the tree at the time they were inspected. Any amendments to the design or

position of the proposed development will invalidate this report

3.6 While this appraisal is not a tree risk assessment it nonetheless takes into account observed

structural defects of the inspected trees in order to inform conclusions with regard to their

retentive worth.

.

4.0 Legal duty

4.1 It is the responsibility of the tree owner to ensure that their tree(s) is in a safe and stable

condition, including the effects of root activity, through duty of care in the Occupiers Liability

Act (1957 & 1984).

4.2 The Wildlife and Countryside Act, 1981 makes it an offence to disturb a nesting bird or

recklessly endanger a bat or its roost. Professional advice should be sought, where relevant,

before undertaking any recommended works.


/16



t: 01454 227458 m: 07775576738


4.3 We were not informed of any Tree Preservation Orders or other statutory constraints covering

the trees surveyed.

5.0 Site and Tree Assessment (to be read in conjunction with the survey schedule sheets)

5.1 The proposed development is for the construction additional car parking spaces to the south of

the existing main building. The area proposed for development currently comprises of a small

section of trees and smoking area to the west of the existing car parking, and an open field on

lower ground to the south.

5.2 Fifty-two trees and one group of trees were surveyed. Of the trees surveyed four were

categorised A, eight trees were categorized B, three trees were categorised U, the remaining trees

and hedgerow were categorized C. The trees were assessed and graded in accordance with the

Cascading Chart of Tree Quality Assessment contained within BS5837:2012.

5.3 The majority of trees are situated within a woodland strip extending along the western boundary

of the site. Individually the tree exhibit poor structural form due to suppression from the

neighbouring trees as would be expected within a woodland setting. When assessed as a whole it

is considered that the woodland strip offers high visual amenity and provided good screening to

the site.

5.4 The land slopes down steeply at the southern extent of the site, along the top of the slope is a line

of Common Beech trees (T46-T53). These are mature trees offering high visual to the area with

no significant defects were identified at the time of inspection.

5.5 Due to the topography of the site it will be necessary to construct an access road to the lower

field. This will consist of a 1in 8 ramp leading from the existing car parking down to the

proposed parking area. A number of over-extended branches from the trees in the woodland

strip to the west will need to be cut back to allow the construction works.

5.6 The additional car parking spaces in the existing parking area will require the removal of a six

poor specimen trees and will encroach into the Root Protection Area (RPA) of a number of trees

intended for retention. Specialist construction techniques will be required to minimise any

potential root disturbance.


/16



t: 01454 227458 m: 07775576738


6.0 Arboricultural Constraints

6.1 Trees have a widely spreading, shallow root system. In most cases the majority of tree roots are

within the top 600 mm of soil and can be expected to extend beyond the outer edge of the

canopy. Roots can therefore be easily damaged by construction activity.

6.2 Constraints on the design of the development are presented in the tree schedules (appendix 1) ,

Tree Constraints Plan (appendix 2) and the Arboricultural Impact Assessment (appendix 3 ). These

constraints are also considered in the main body of the report below and recommended remedial

works and mitigating measures.

6.3 The Tree Constraints Plan (TCP), (appendix 2), shows the Root Protection Areas (RPAs) for the

individual trees identified in the tree schedule tables. This represents the minimum area in m2

which ideally, should be left undisturbed around each tree were it to be retained. The TCP also

shows a representation of the crown spread of each tree measured in four cardinal directions. The

RPA has been calculated in accordance with Section 4.6 of BS5837:2012 Trees in relation to

design, demolition and construction – Recommendations.

6.4 Trees Identified for Retention and Removal.

It is proposed to remove T10, T11, T12, G13, T16a, T16b and T37 tree to facilitate the proposed

development. These trees were all categorised C in in accordance with the Cascading Chart of

Tree Quality Assessment contained within BS5837:2012.

6.4.1 Trees Outside Site Boundary

There are no trees outside of the site boundary, which are affected within the current proposals

7.0 Arboricultural Impact Assessment

7.1 The position of the new car parking spaces, within the existing parking area, extend into the

fringes of the Root Protection Area (RPA) generated by T06, T07, T09, T15 and T17. Any

excavation or soil compaction within this area could potentially lead to root severance or

damage. This could subsequently lead to a reduction in the trees ability to take up water and

nutrients, which may lead to a deterioration in the trees health. The proposed encroachment is

below 20% of the Root Protection Area (RPA) generated by any individual tree


/16



t: 01454 227458 m: 07775576738


“Soil compaction, excavations and soil level increases will damage roots and the closer to the

trunk they occur the greater the damage inflicted on the tree. Nevertheless, healthy trees are

generally able to withstand the loss of some roots, a maximum of about 20% of the rooting area

without noticeable effects (Helliwell and Fordham 1992)

No dig construction techniques will be employed using a Cellular Confinement System to

minimise any potential root damage. Protective fencing will be erected to prevent any

further encroachment into the Root Protection Area (RPA) of retained trees.

7.2 The new access ramp and parking spaces in the lower field do not encroach into the Root

Protection Area (RPA) of any retained trees. Construction activity during the proposed works

could however potentially encroach into the RPAs. Any soil compaction within the Root

Protection Area (RPA) of retained trees could potentially lead to root severance or damage.

Over extended branches will be cut back to allow the erection of protective fencing to

prevent any encroachment into the RPAs during the proposed works.

7.4 Storage and mixing of construction materials could lead to soil compaction of ground

contamination through spillage.

All storage and mixing of materials will be undertaken outside the Root Protection Area

(RPA) of the retained trees. If considered necessary, due to ground levels, a suitable water

proof ground covering with bunds at the edges to prevent leakage will be laid over the

storage, mixing area.

7.5 Overhanging and low branches could potentially be damaged during the erection of scaffolding

or during the delivery of materials to site.

Branches will be cut back to allow the erection of the protective fencing which will then

enclose the canopy spreads of the retained trees preventing any potential damage.

7.7 Shading:- Potential shading of buildings by retained trees can lead to pressure for the pruning or

removal or remove of the trees. BS5837: 2012 par 5.3 states that proposed buildings should be

designed to take account of existing trees, their ultimate size and density of foliage, and the

effect that these will have on the availability of light.

The proposed development is for additional car parking, potential shading is not

considered an issue.


/16



t: 01454 227458 m: 07775576738


7.8 Future growth:- Future extension growth of branches can result in the continuous whipping of

branches against the fabric of a building or damage to the roof tiles. Structures should therefore

be located with due consideration for a tree’s ultimate growth.

It is proposed to cut back any over-extended branches to facilitate the proposed

development. Once the development is completed any future growth which impact the use

of the car parking could be cut back to previous points.

7.9 Seasonal nuisance:- Trees are naturally growing and shedding organisms. Leaves of some

species can cause problems, particularly in the autumn, by blocking gullies and gutters. Fruit can

cause slippery patches, and accumulation of honeydew can be damaging to surfaces and

vehicles.

It is considered that any seasonal nuisance would be at an acceptable level.

8.0 Tree Protection

The trees to be retained on site during and after development as listed in Section 6.4 will require

both above and below ground protection. Above ground protection may involve remedial tree

surgery works. These works, where applicable, are discussed in Section 8.1 below.

8.0.1 Below ground protection measures, based on the root protection areas (RPA), indicated in the

Tree Constraints Plan (appendix 2), will involve the erection of tree protection barriers as discussed

in Section 8.2. Where the proposed site layout encroaches into the RPAs of retained trees,

measures are recommended to minimise the potential damage to the roots and the root

environment of the trees in question.

The tree protection fencing is illustrated in Tree Protection Plan Drawing Number 160196-DH-

TPP-AM (appendix 3)

8.0.2 The potential position of tree roots as indicated in the Tree Constraints Plan (appendix 2) and the

Arboricultural Impact Assessment Plan (appendix 3) are only guidelines based on calculations

shown in BS5837:2012 ‘Trees in relation to design, demolition and construction –

Recommendations’.


/16



t: 01454 227458 m: 07775576738


8.1 Recommended Remedial Tree Surgery Works

It is intended to cut back the over-extended branches of T17, T23, T24, T25, T27, T29, T30, T32

and T34. The extent of the cutting back will involve the minimum amount necessary to facilitate

the erection of the protective fencing and construction of the access ramp.

8.1.1 All works will be undertaken in accordance with BS3998:2010 Tree Work Recommendations

and should be undertaken, by a suitably qualified and experienced Tree Surgery contractor.

8.2 Tree Protection Fencing

The Tree Protection Plan (appendix 4) indicates the location of the proposed tree protection

barriers where appropriate. These barriers will create a Construction Exclusions Zone (CEZ)

around the retained trees

8.2.1 The Construction Exclusion Zones will be erected in accordance with the recommendations in

Section 6.2 of BS5837:2012. The specifications for the barriers are presented in Figure 2 from

BS5837:2012 (appendix 5).

8.2.2 It is essential that tree protection fencing barriers are erected before any site preparation or

construction work be commenced. (Remedial tree works however, should be undertaken before

such fencing is erected – See Section 8.1).

8.3 Damage Limitation-Special Measures

Areas are identified on the Tree Protection Plan (appendix 4) where special measures will be

required in order to minimise the impact of the proposed site layout on the retained trees where

the proposed construction works breach the RPAs.

8.3.1 Where new hard surfacing is to be installed within the Root Protection Areas of trees T06, T07,

T09, T15 and T17construction will be undertaken in accordance with Arboricultural Practice

Note (APN) 12 'Through the Trees to Development' using a no-dig construction techniques with

a cellular confinement system such as 'Cell Web'. This will be installed in accordance with the

Cellweb Installation Guide (appendix 6)

8.3.2 Where any construction activity is proposed which require the repositioning of the tree

protection barriers, liaison should be made with the Project Arboriculturalist to ensure no

damage occurs to the tree roots.


/16



t: 01454 227458 m: 07775576738


8.3.3 In the event of any unforeseen circumstances the Project Arboriculturalist will be informed

immediately and will advise on suitable precautionary measures.

9.0 Arboricultural Method Statement

This section sets out the basis of the methodology for all proposed works in relation to the

proposed development in proximity to trees located within the site boundary.

9.0.1 Copies of the Arboricultural Method Statement document will be available for inspection on site

and will form the basis of the management of all works relating to the trees on the site for the

Site Agent/Manager following commencement of the project.

9.1 Programme of Works

Arboricultural works

Erection of protective barriers

Installation of no-dig surfacing

Construction of access ramp and car parking area in to lower field

9.2 Arboricultural Works

The work recommendations discussed in Section 9.2.1 set out the proposed works to trees within

the proposed development site. These works will be carried out before commencement of other

site operations including the erection of protective barriers.

9.2.1 The removal of T10, T11, T12, G13, T16a, T16b and T37 will be undertaken to facilitate the

construction of the new parking area. Over extended branches from T17, T23, T24, T25, T27,

T29, T30, T32 and T34 will be cut back by the minimum amount necessary to facilitate the

erection of the protective fencing.

9.2.2 The proposed tree works will be undertaken by a professional arboriculturist in accordance with

the recommendations contained in BS3998:2010. Tree work-recommendations.


/16



t: 01454 227458 m: 07775576738


9.3 Tree Protection Fencing

BS5837: 2012 recommends the erection of protective fencing around retained trees before

development takes place, in order to protect the roots. The position of the fencing is calculated

using the tree’s diameter (DBH) measured at 1.5m up the stem. The area within the fencing is

called the Root Protection Area (RPA).

9.3.1 To allow access to facilitate the construction of the new parking spaces, within the existing

parking area, it will not be possible to erect the protective fences at recommended distance

contained with BS5837:2012. It is proposed to erect the protective fencing as indicated on the

Tree Protection Plan (TPP) (appendix 4). This will create a Construction Exclusion Zone (CEZ). The

remaining protective fencing will be erected at recommended distance contained with

BS5837:2012 as indicated on the Tree Protection Plan (TPP) (appendix 4).

9.3.2 The protective fencing will be constructed in accordance with BS5837:2012 ‘Trees in relation to

design, demolition and construction – Recommendations’. This will consist of a vertical and

horizontal scaffold framework well braced to resist impacts. Vertical tubes will be spaced at a

maximum interval of 3m and driven securely into the ground. Weldmesh panels will then be

securely fixed to the framework. (appendix 5)

9.3.3 Where the position of the scaffolding framework, to support the Herris fencing, encroaches into

the root protection area (RPA) of retained trees all post holes will be excavated by hand. Post

holes outside the RPAs will be excavated either by hand or using a hand held auger.

9.3.4 During excavation, any trees roots encountered with a diameter of less than 25mm will be

cleanly severed with a suitable cutting tool, in accordance with BS5837:2012 para 7.2.3. If

larger roots are discovered (25mm or greater) the position of the post hole will be adjusted to

avoid any damage to the root and the initial excavation hole back filled with the original soil.

9.3.5 Once erected the fencing will be retained and maintained in position for the duration of the

development. If it is necessary to move the protective fencing advice will be sought from

Silverback Arboricultural Consultancy and approval requested from the Wiltshire Council Tree

Officer before any of the fencing is altered.

9.3.6 Weatherproof signage should be attached to the fencing indicating its function as illustrated

(appendix 6).


/16



t: 01454 227458 m: 07775576738


9.3.7 In the CEZ (construction exclusion zone):

There must be no alteration of ground levels, including soil stripping other than those detailed

within this report

Any installation of drainage or services will be in accordance with the National Joint Utilities

Group (NJUG 4) publication Guidelines for the Planning, Installation and Maintenance of Utility

Apparatus in Proximity to Trees: 2007

Oil, bitumen, cement or other harmful materials must not be stored, mixed or discharged within

10m of any retained trees

Fires will not be lit beneath or within 10m upwind of tree canopies

9.4 Access for Construction Works – Plant and Machinery

Details of the type and number of machines and plant to be used on the site and the position of

any site compound will be will be clearly identified within the Detailed Arboricultural Method

Statement.

9.5 Construction of no-dig surfacing in existing car parking area.

This will be undertaken using no-dig construction techniques constructed using a three

dimensional ‘Cellular Confinement System’ (CCS), such as “CellWeb” Construction will be

undertaken in accordance with CellWeb Installation Guide (appendix 7)

9.5.1 The position of the new parking area will be marked out and cleared of vegetation and a general

level created using hand tools and clean sand where necessary. A geo textile membrane will

then be laid across the surface.

9.5.2 The ‘Cellular Confinement System’ (CCS) will then be laid across the area. This will provide a

load-bearing and permeable structure. The cellular design and perforated cell walls reduces the

vertical load pressure on sub soils to tree roots and prevents damage.

9.5.3 Once the CCS is in place it will be backfilled with clean angular stone which will enable air and

moisture to reach the roots and encourage healthy growth. A porous wearing course will then be

applied, to a depth of 30-40mm as the finished surface. The edges of the driveway will be

retained using tannalised wooden retaining boards staked into the ground tapering down to the

existing ground level with top soil.


/16



t: 01454 227458 m: 07775576738


9.6 Supervision and Monitoring

It is recommended that the Arboricultural Consultant is employed to oversee operations relating

to works close to or within RPAs and to issue a site inspection report of practical completion for

the following operations:-

The erection of protective barriers around the retained trees in accordance with TPP (appendix 4)

Installation of no-dig surfacing

9.6.1 It is recommended that a record of site visits completed by the Project Arboriculturalist is

maintained for inspection on site and copies are forwarded to the Local Planning Authority Tree

Officer.

9.6.2 This development will be overseen Silverback Arboricultural Consultancy. If there are any

alterations to the proposed working methodology necessary, works will be stopped until the

arboricultural consultant has been notified and agreement reached with the Local Planning

Authority Tree Officer.
