Proposal

G1 Sycamores: Re-pollard the entire group aside from T1, T1.1, T1.2 & T1.3. T1, T1.1, T1.2 & T1.3: Remove the identified stems which all feature an advanced rate of decay in the stems. T2 Willow: Re pollard and remove dead limbs. T3 Silver birch: Crown reduce by 1-2m to reduce the impact of wind loading by bringing the canopy back in line with the surrounding canopies. T4 Horse chestnut: Re-pollard to prevent limb failure. T5 Sycamore: Re-pollard to prevent limb failure. T6 Lime: Re-pollard to prevent limb failure. T7 Sycamore: Crown reduce by up to 3m. This tree has been previously reduced, and has included unions at 2m and 3m, the reduction will aim to reduce the loading on each of these unions.
