Proposal

T1; Sycamore - Remove and replant further to the east with an Upright Hornbeam - 'Frans Fontaine' Reason: Sycamore has become too dominant for the small front garden, giving darker shade and litter, has required regular maintenance to contain it's growth in the past. Replacement tree will be less maintenance and more fitting in the small garden. Data via plota.co.uk
