Description

Six mature Liquidambar trees, identified as T1-T6 on the attached site plan. Proposed Works Crown reduce T1-T6 by approximately 25% through selective reduction of branch lengths to maintain a balanced natural form and shape. Maintain the existing crown clearance (canopy uplift) to approximately 2.5 metres above ground level by removing or pruning regrowth from lower branches. Remove any dead, damaged, diseased, rubbing or crossing branches identified during the works. Prune T6 branches encroaching towards the footway, carriageway and adjacent street lighting to provide and maintain suitable clearance from the highway and associated infrastructure… Data via plota.co.uk
