Proposal

T1 Oak - Pruning - to include the removal of soft growth on the outer lower parts of the tree crown to reduce the overall size and spread of the tree over the parking area, shortening or removal of secondary branches under 50-75mm diameter, (not main structural branches over this size). Pruning to include additional selective branch reductions and reshaping within the canopy to maintain the trees natural form and symmetry and to reduce end weight-loading of individual branches in order to alleviate any structural defects. Pruning work to be done evenly all round (where possible) to maintain the trees natural form and symmetry. Remove visible deadwood as required, pruning back to sound wood or appropriate branch junctions. Ivy to be severed to alleviate end weight on branches. - TPO-DER-103
