Proposal

REAR: ONE Sycamore (T1)(ht.9m)(rad.7m) CROWN REDUCE HEIGHT by 2m from 9m to 7m, REDUCE RADIUS by 2m from 7m to 5m on all compass points. Reason: multi-stemmed, outgrown its space, too big for garden, shade to garden and windows, crown reduce away from buildings to keep it under control from overgrowing into neighbouring gardens, previously reduced. REAR: ONE Ash (T2)(ht. 6m) CROWN REDUCE HEIGHT by 3m from 6m to 3m, REDUCE RADUIS by 3m from 5m to 2m on all compass points. Reason: To allow a better shape for regrowth and make it more manageable in future if it continues dying back (may be showing early signs Ash dieback). Informative A: the sensitive management of the trees is greatly appreciated for landscape amenity, urban greening, wildlife, wellbeing, and urban forest canopy for environmental benefits to mitigate the effects of climate change. Informative B: if space allows, please create habitat log piles in the garden from cut branches for wildlife and biodiversity.
