Proposal

T1 - Ash - adjacent to front driveway entrance - re-pollard; T2 - Walnut - north front boundary and T3 - Walnut - western rear boundary - crown reduction by 2-2.5m maximum, cutting to suitable growing points and shaping over to leave natural profile; T4 - Yew adjacent to driveway and southern front boundary - crown lift to 4m from ground level, cutting to suitable growing points; T5 - Leylandii - western rear boundary - crown reduction by 2-2.5m maximum and shape over to leave natural profile; T6 - Leylandii - southern rear boundary - fell to ground level.Reason: T1 - Ash - previously managed in this manner and will stop interference in service cables; T2 and T3 - Walnut and T5 - Leylandii - to prevent encroachment on to neighbouring properties and domination of small garden; T4 - to give clearance to vehicles using the driveway; T6 - Leylandii - Too close to both Swifts and neighbouring property and further reduction work will leave little live tree left.
