No cutting through the main stem and to include shortening of part limbs where they are growing into neighbours property. 5x Sycamore Trees (T6) - Maintain all crowns, reducing up to 1.5-2m. 2 x reducing limbs that have grown over the A51 and prevent any future hazards or incidents. 1 x Horse Chestnut Tree (T7) - 1m crown reduction. 5x Holly Trees (T8) - Crown thin 15-20% and crown reduce by 1.5m.
