Proposal
As you look to the back of the garden, there are two sloping trees - the one on the left is an Oak tree and the one on the right is an Ash tree. We DO NOT want to remove the trees but trim off the crown by 30% to reduce the weight at the top and prevent them from falling down in high winds and/or over time. Oak (T1) crown reduction by 4m to leave the height of about 15m above the ground total spread of about 7m to provide significant clearance to the property and allow more sunlight. Ash (T2) full crown reduction by 4m to leave the height of 15m above ground and a total spread of about 6m significant clearance to the property and allow more light to come through.
