Proposal
T1 and T2 - T1 is currently category 4 according to the Tree Council Ash dieback guide. T2 shows significantly better vitality and scores Cat 2/3 according to the guide. Therefore, although they have a combined crown, I have categorised them as separate trees. T1. Ash - Fell as significant dieback cross canopy. Tree is over outbuilding posing risk to property. T2. Ash - As the crown is combined with T1, T2 will be crown reduced by up to 2m to reduce the risk of failure after the removal of T1. T3. Holm Oak - Crown reduce by up to 3m to give 2m clearance from chimney. T4. Pine - Tree dead / dying. Fell and remove.
