Proposal

Beech (T1) overhangs the rear garden of East Allotment Cottage specifically the shed/outbuilding and has damaged (minor) the roof of this structure in the past: request a crown lift to 5m-back to trunk or appropriate point (as per BS3998:2010) to improve clearance over this building. Also remove a tertiary branch with a +/- 60cm long wound at a height of 13m in the south west crown & remove any minor deadwood if encountered. See accompanying photo of beech taken from within the allotment looking south east
