Proposal

5 year maintenance plan: Year 1: heavily prune to structural framework to reduce the weight and prevent pulling from the house and the structure. Year 2: light prune up to 0.2m to maintain good health and to prevent Wisteria becoming overgrown again. Year 3: heavy prune. Year 4: light prune. Year 5: heavy prune. Initially, Acrow Props will be used to get Wisteria back to the window seal and a long term solution will be to use oak beams to support weight. These works were prior discussed with the tree officer Brian Ogden.
