Proposal
6m Hornbeam hedge at rear - Reduce height by approx 1.5m (half way from garage roof to top), leaving flush and level, trim sides. 8m Silver birch - Crown reduction, reduce height by approx 2m and laterals accordingly, shape and balance leaving natural form, pruning to suitable lateral growth points. 1.5m Willow - Remove, taking down to low stump near ground level. Dig out if smaller enough and if it wont damage retaining wall / planter - if too large then leave as low as possible and treat with ecoplugs to prevent regrowth.
