Proposal
All tree work to be bs:3998 compliant T2: Beech– rear garden crown reduction to previous pruning points. Reduce the overall height and radial spread of the canopy by pruning back by approx. 1.5m, to the most recent, clearly defined cyclical reduction points. Pruning cuts must be made cleanly down to the parent stem or back to a distal lateral branch that is at least one-third the diameter of the removed branch, maintaining the overall architectural form and structural integrity of the crown. T3: Robinia– rear left side (above play area) crown clean (removal of deadwood) and climbing inspection throughout the entire canopy to mitigate risk to the underlying play area. Carry out a comprehensive aerial climbing inspection of the main stem, primary unions, and upper canopy structure. Document and report all findings regarding structural defects, decay, or physiological decline upon completion. T4: Cherry plum– right hand side crown reduction. Reduce the height by up to 1.5m and the radial spread by up to 2m. Prune back to suitable, well-placed lateral growth points to achieve a uniform, symmetrical canopy profile while preserving the structural framework of the tree. T5: Tulip tree– far rear right aspect crown reduction to previous pruning points, approx. 2.m. Reduce the overall height and radial spread of the canopy by pruning back to the most recent, visible cyclical reduction points to retain a balanced, structurally sound, and natural canopy outline.
