Proposal

C= Horse Chestnut on the edge of our garden next to No 1 Monk Sherborne road, requires a pollarding to a finished height of 5m with a spread (radius) of 3m. to remove the canopy of the tree which is restricting the next door. B = Beech tree from growing into a full canopy. remove down the main trunk for a major reduction by 3m leaving a finished height of 12m with a spread (radius) of 7m the branches allowing light into the conservatory beside the house Longelys and into the beech tree canopy beside the Chestnut. Beech tree, proposed a canopy reduction to ensure the shape of the canopy post the pollard of the chestnut grows into a regular shaped tree. Chestnut is close to the house, H = Hazel tree will also be reduced by 2m leaving a finished height of 8m with a spread (radius) of 3m as well for the light into the conservatory windows. Other tree to be managed/reduced, on the same boundary with No 1 is the Old Apple tree, A = which is starting to die back at the top of the tree and the top branches need to be pruned back hard by 3m to leave a finished height of 12m and crown spread (radius) of 4m. Allowing the new tree planted below to grow up straight in replacement to it in time.
