Proposal
2no. Mature Ash Trees (T1&T2) - Crown reduction by 2.5-3m in height and 2-2.5m on all sides leaving a canopy spread of 10m in height and 15m width. These trees are now drawing both front and back gardens respectively, encroaching on the roof and walls and so this work is required to make their size more suitable for their surroundings, preventing damage to the property and allowing more light in to the house.
