Proposal

T1 Hazel. Re Coppice. T2 eucalyptus. Fell to ground level. Poor form. Large and close to house. Some dieback in crown T3 boxelder maple. Crown lift to aid maintenance of lawn T4 cypress. Fell to ground level. Previously poor pruning has caused unnaturally high crown and tall narrow stem T5 dead tree. Remove T6 spruce. Fell to ground level. Poor form, tall/thin G1 lapsed beech hedge (and 1 hawthorn). 5 beech stems (3 large 2 small) creating very large canopy. Remove 2 smaller stems to remove competition, these will be reduced to a maintainable hedge height. Remaining 3 large stems crown lift to provide definition between hedge/trees and reduce canopy by 25% leaf cover as part of a staged reduction. Either remove hawthorn or try to incorporate into hedge.
