Proposal
T1 and T2 Horse Chestnut - Proposal to crown lift the trees to no more than 6m height. All branches to be cut back to the main stem, on T1 the prune back would be approx 1.5m and on T2 it would be approx 0.5m. The main crown directly above the red zone on both trees would not be touched in order to maintain the natural shape and character. This will allow more light to the garden. Both trees located on the edge of the woodland. LCC owned trees. Permission from Parks and Countryside Dept will need to be granted before works commence: tree.enquiries@leeds.gov.uk
