Proposal

T1 - Cedar Reduce height down to a finished height of approx 12m. Reduce lower over extended limbs by 4 to 5m. Remove any broke / snapped branches. The subject tree is a twin stem mature cedar that forks at 5m. From a basic inspection the tree looks healthy if not very one sided. There has been a new family moved into number 24 and there has been increasing worry from both client and neighbour that should the tree have any sort of major failure, whether that be limbs failing or the tree falling, that it could possibly cause substantial damage. The intended works are to reduce the height to a finished height of approximately 12m and reducing limbs by 4 to 5m. The tree lends itself very well to the specification as there is an obvious secondary inner crown to prune to.
