Proposal

T1) Large mature Beech tree. High value specimen tree visible to surrounding area. Lift for high vehicle clearance to approximately 5m on the roadside, and level through to the garden side. Removing secondary growth only, no structural pruning. Reduce 2x very long branches on the roadside which are overextending the natural shape of the canopy, by removal of 4m max, remaining 7m, end loading only. These are more susceptible to breakage, especially when frozen and under the weight of snow, or in heavy rainfall when in full leaf. Prune secondary growth only to clear property gable end by 3m.
