Proposal

Silver Birch overhanging the driveway - to fell. This tree has an asymmetric crown due to group pressure. The tree which caused this has now been removed, leaving the Silver Birch exposed and likely to fail. A hard reduction to alleviate this danger would leave the tree looking unsightly and, in my opinion, it would be better to fell this tree to near ground level. Fell to near ground level.
