8 Red Barn Farm Thornicombe Dorset DT11 9QB
Proposal
T1 - Horse Chestnut - Prune back the lateral crown spread by 1m to suitable growth points which hang directly over the roof of the property and conservatory. Reduce the lowest primary on the eastern stem back to a suitable live growth point in line with remaining lateral reduction (maximum cut size 5cm diameter). T2 - Horse Chestnut - Prune back the crown spread of the garden by 1.5m to suitable growth points and crown lift to create a ground clearance of 4m from ground level. (maximum cut size 5cm diameter) Works to T1 and T2 as per annotated photographs. Reasons: Pruning is seen as good maintenance and to create more light into the heavily shaded property.
