Proposal

T1 - prunus avium/cherry tree in rear garden of 70 George Street We are applying to reduce the tree by approximately 2.5m cutting to suitable growth points and retaining the natural form of the tree. It currently stands around 8m tall, it's final height would be approximately 5.5m tall, we would also reduce the side and cut back harder where it overhangs number 68, though all cuts would be at suitable growth points. The aim of the pruning is to manage the size of the tree in the space it is in.
