Proposal

There were once 11 horse chestnut trees along the drive, but four havebeen cut right down to hedge height. The 7 remaining horse chestnut trees now need work to either cut back the crowns and reduce their height or to cut them right back to hedge height. I have consulted a tree surgeon who has advised that all 7 trees need work. My principal concern is to ensure that there is no danger of trees or parts of trees falling and potentially causing damage to property or injury to people.
