Proposal

T1 - Betula pendula - Crown reduction to 6m - this tree has become huge for the size of the property and has lots of large branches hanging over the highway/public pavement and road, we propose in the dormant season to do a rejuvenating prune. Cut back any remaining branches to a healthy bud or lateral branch. Remove any dead or diseased wood. T2 - Prunus avium - the middle tree is not in good health due to overcrowding by the Betula & other Prunus the branches are entwined with both trees on either side causing dieback, the tree is reaching its lifespan and isn't healthy, I would like to remove it as the trees are overcrowded. T3 - Prunus avium - crown reduction to 3m, removing the dead and overcrowded wood.
