Proposal

T1 - Walnut tree - Reduce height by 1.5m leaving it at around 8.5m lightly pruning lateral branches to tidy. Not reducing overall spread. T2 - Holly within the hedge row. Reduce this by 2m this will bring it back into the hedge and also maintain the view to the church behind. T3 - Cedar tree - This is also within the hedge row we plan to reduce by 1m in height will bring it to hedge level and clear the vision of the church. T4 x2 Maple trees - To reduce the lateral branches back by 1.5m. This will formal prune and shape the tree. T5 - x2 dead Ash trees - Fell to ground level. T6 - Conifers which boarder ravens court. This is a hedge row but we would like to reduce this down by 5m leaving a 10m height. T7 - Group of sycamore, holly and Hornbeam. These are growing as a group on the edge of the drive way and a crown raise to 3.5metres T8 - Group/multi stem conifers. Remove 2 dead/dying stems then reduce remaining stem in height by 5 metres back to live growth.
