Description

Undertake a selective crown reduction of approx 2.5m to suitable secondary growth points to reduce end weight whilst maintaining the natural shape and balanced form of the trees. Reason: Routine arboricultural maintenance to remove significant deadwood and reduce the risk of branch failure over the driveway, garage and adjacent property. A selective crown reduction is proposed to reduce end weight and maintain the long-term health, structural integrity and amenity value of the trees in accordance with good arboricultural practice.
