Proposal
Tree Species: Sycamore 1 x Tree at the rear of 78 Macclesfield Road 2 x Trees at front of 78 Macclesfield Road Raise the crown to 6m from the ground. We are not seeking to reduce the crown height but would like to reduce the lateral branches by 2m. The plan is to remove the low hanging branches to lift the crown and to thin the crown at the rear by around 10%. The rear low hanging branches are encroaching on the garden and blocking out light. The trees at the front are starting to impede the passage of taller vehicles using the drive/access road. Data via plota.co.uk
