P26/S4927/TCA - Works to trees in CA Approved

Proposal

T1 Lime Top to approximately 1.0m above crown break. T2 Walnut Remove to ground level. T3 Silver Birch Reduce to previous points of pruning. This will remove approximately 1.0m of apical regrowth to suitable points of pruning & selectively reduce side lateral growth back to previous points of pruning, being mindful of phototropic growth response & the effect this has had on the trees overall shape.
