Proposal
Tree 4 (Ash)- Carefully thin the outer crown by removing selective secondary and tertiary lateral branches by no more than 20%, focusing on overextended limbs over the driveway, reduce the length of the major lateral limb extending at approximately 90 degrees over the access track and the neighbouring property boundary by 4 metres back to a suitable growth point, ensuring a balanced remaining canopy. Reason - The tree features a highly compromised, overextended structural form. The proposed targeted reduction of the limb and the outer canopy is an essential preventative safety measure mitigating the risk of historic major limb failure over the driveway, track and adjacent property while protecting the overall health and amenity value of the tree.
