Proposal

The tree type is a Sycamore. The tree is approximately 12/13 meters tall and approx 18 meters wide. I would like to reduce the height by about a third, and the width by approximately half the reason for the work is the tree is now very close to the house, and it is blocking alot of light. The tree also causes concern in high winds and bad weather, as it sways considerably and looks like a possible hazzard.
