Proposal

G1 mixed 1 boundary vegetation clearance undertake selective reduction and clearance of mixed boundary vegetation growing along and encroaching over the black metal boundary fence. Reduce lateral growth from the mixed vegetation by approximately 1–2 metres, pruning back to suitable growth points and, where practicable, to the boundary line. Species within the group include oak, holly, sycamore and elder. Remove the small ash tree within G2 by felling to as close to ground level as reasonably practicable. Reduce the prunus at the end of the boundary to provide approximately 0.5 metres clearance from the fence. Justification for routine maintenance and cut back from pavement large cherry tree lateral pruning reduce the overextended lateral branches of the large cherry tree growing adjacent to the building by approximately 1–2 metres, pruning back to suitable growth points. Undertake lateral pruning only, retaining the overall height of the tree and maintaining a balanced, natural crown form. Provide approximately 3 metres clearance from the building where reasonably practicable, whilst avoiding excessive pruning. Hawthorn and mixed vegetation pruning reduce the hawthorn and associated mixed vegetation growing adjacent to the archway doorway by approximately 2-3 metres. Reduce the top and sides to establish a neat, uniform hedge line and cut back excessive or protruding growth to improve clearance around the archway and doorway. Shape the vegetation evenly whilst retaining suitable screening and a natural appearance. Remove dead, damaged and excessive growth where appropriate. Remove all resulting branches, cuttings and green waste from site and leave the working area clean and tidy upon completion. All pruning works to be carried out in accordance with good arboricultural and horticultural practice. Data via plota.co.uk
