Proposal

T1 Hazel - Re-coppice all dead and declining stems, cutting them back to approximately 0.25 metres above ground level.

T4 Damson - Prune back growth encroaching towards the roof to provide a minimum clearance of 1.5 metres.

This shall be achieved by reducing encroaching growth from the adjacent Apple (T7) tree to provide a minimum clearance of 1.5 metres around the Damson. Additionally, trim back the lower growth of the adjacent Laurel hedge to achieve a minimum clearance of 0.5 metres from the Damson. T7 Apple - Reduce encroaching growth from the Apple tree towards the adjacent Damson to provide a minimum clearance of 1.5 metres.
