Proposal
T1 - Yew Tree This Yew tree is located in the rear garden close to the eastern boundary with The Pastures, it is mostly hidden by a very large Beech tree. The work that I wish to carry out is to remove all lower branches, up to a height of approximately 5 feet, this is to allow us easier access to the surrounding ground, so we can tidy it up and potentially install planting.
