Proposal

T1 Sycamore - Remove the stem to below the height of the fence as any drawing back of branches on the stem would result in very few growth points being left for regeneration. T2 Sycamore - Draw back any branches overhanging the boundary of the neighbouring and applicants properties bu approx 2 - 2.5m to achieve more light and remove the oppressiveness of the trees into the rear gardens of both properties. The overall woodland edge would be only lightly impacted due to the density of the band of trees remaining behind.
