Description

T1; Oak (Quercus robur) is located on the left side of the property and is wished to be removed to ground level. Reason: Close to a nearby building and surrounding trees. The surrounding trees are older, bigger, and are causing T1 to grow towards the property with the lack of light and space. The removal of T1 will enhance the growth for surrounding trees and create a clearance between the building before issues arise. T2; Oak (Quercus robur) - Reduce by 20% from branch tip back to suitable growth points, no greater than 1/3 of the adjacent pruning cut on the over extended NE facing limb. Reason: Reduce the weight and limb twisting in the wind above the garage on the property, improve the natural tree shape which is currently being affected by this over extended limb.
