Reduce the overall crown by up to 2 metres, maintaining the tree's natural shape, and undertake an approximate 20-30% crown thin to improve natural daylight to the garden and neighbouring windows whilst retaining the tree's health and amenity value. T2 Selectively reduce or remove the limb encroaching into the adjacent Cherry tree to prevent branch conflict (see Photograph 1). T3 Cherry - Reduce the overall crown by up to 2 metres, maintaining the tree's natural shape, and undertake an approximate 20-30% crown thin to improve natural daylight to the garden and neighbouring windows.
