Proposal

T1 ? Oak: Crown reduce by approximately 2 metres, reducing the overall height and lateral crown spread by up to 2m, with particular emphasis on providing suitable clearance from the adjacent property. Pruning to suitable growth points to retain a natural, balanced crown form appropriate to the species. Remove major deadwood throughout the crown and remove identified Oak Processionary Moth (OPM) nests/material using appropriate control and disposal procedures. Reason for works: To provide appropriate clearance between the crown and the adjacent property, reduce end-weight on extended branches, remove major deadwood to manage the risk of branch failure, and appropriately manage identified OPM. All works to be undertaken in accordance with BS3998:2010 ? Tree Work Recommendations. (TPO No.13 of 2011) Data via plota.co.uk
