Proposal

T1 Purple Maple (to left of drive) - Fell because of roots damaging driveway of our property and neighbors. Block paving has lifted and concrete next door all cracked and lifted. T2 Cherry (to right of drive) - All round crown reduction by 2-3m would improve the overall look of the tree and reduce shade. Tree is overgrown compared to others on the street, excessive shading to multiple properties. T3 Beech (to rear left of house) - Leave height and sides, suggested the undercrown trim 2-3m and some branches extending over the beck 2-4m to tidy the appearance and prevent touching the neighbors greenhouse. T4 Cherry (to rear right of house) - Only undercrown reduction 2m and 2-4m off the lower front side facing my property. Just to tidy the appearance of the tree and reduce shade. Trees are all overgrown and unkept spoiling the look of the area and natural light to us and surrounding properties.
