Proposal

TG1. Leyland cypress group consisting of approx 6 stems. Trees were planted as a hedge at the very bottom of the garden to screen off the railway behind. They have grown much higher than intended (approx 10-12m). Client would like the trees reduced to approx 2.5m in height in order that the hedge can be maintained at the level of the adjacent hedge.
