Proposal
All within W1: (T3 on site plan) Oak up to 2 m reduction to the northwestern aspect to suitable pruning points as the tree is heavily weighted over the workshop building, the tree has been suppressed and formed a distinctive form with a heavy lean; (G1 on site plan) - Located south side of workshop- x3 Oaks reduce north side limbs on oak trees by 2-3m to give better clearance and reduce end weight; (T4 on site plan) oak in decline pollard tree to a 4 meter monolith to preserve tree for habitat. The majority of the trees canopy is dead, it is clear the tree is under a lot of stress. It lays approximately 3 meters from the road, for health and safety reasons it would be beneficial to reduce the tree to a 4 meter monolith and give the tree a chance to re generate at a safe height; (G2 on site plan) remove dead wood on trees along road side
