Proposal

T1 - Oak - Reduce the southern limb by half its extent and crown volume by removing the distal part. Reduce the northern limb by half its extent and crown volume: (i) Remove the distal part, (ii) Thin/reduce the limb’s residual crown as appropriate to achieve the 2 metres reduction. For the conservation of the tree (primarily to reduce the risk of collapse). Prune at the extremity of the crown on its western side to give 1m horizontal clearance from the Old Granary.
