Proposal
T1. Hawthorn, Rear Garden: Poor in form/Partially dead: Fell to ground level and grind out as much stump as reasonably possible. The tree's current height is 4m, and its crown spread is 3m After the proposed works, the tree's height is 0.0m, and the crown spread is 0.0m. G2. Lawson Cypress x 3 Rear Garden: The tree is located in proximity to adjacent properties and will require careful, selective pruning to achieve the desired outcome whilst maintaining its natural form. The tree is currently in good condition and exhibits a well-balanced structure. Therefore, crown reduction is not considered appropriate. Recommended works: Carefully and selectively raise the canopy to provide a minimum clearance of 2 metres from the neighbouring roof and building. Remove all ivy growth from the south-westernmost tree. Undertake selective crown thinning by removing approximately 20% of secondary and tertiary branches to improve the vista. The tree's current height is 14m, and its crown spread is 4m After the proposed works, the tree's height is 14m, and the crown spread is 4m. G3. Lime x 3 Front Garden: Reduce new growth to previous reduction points, or approximately 2.5m, retaining good growth buds for crown development. Do not leave stumps or snags or compromise the structural integrity of the knuckle by making cuts larger than necessary. The tree's current height is 14.5m, and its crown spread is 9m After the proposed works, the tree's height is 12m, and the crown spread is 6.5m. T4. Lawson Cypress Front Garden: Raise the canopy to clear the carport cover by 1m. The tree's current height is 5m, and its crown spread is 3m After the proposed works, the tree's height is 5m, and the crown spread is 3m. Data via plota.co.uk
