Proposal

Works to trees under a Tree Preservation Order, namely 1) T1 - mature oak Reduce crown from 6m spread to 4.2m, cutting to a suitable growing point, especially over the road. 2) T2 - Mature oak Fell the tree. Reason: The trees' crown is heavily over the western end of the flats in the courtyard at The Knoll. The tree suffered recent damage in Storm Goretti, losing a significant limb, that fell and hit the end building, dislodging tiles and guttering. Replace oak with a Sorbus aria 6-8ft height pot grown specimen in a similar position.
