ONE Lime tree(T1)CROWN HEIGHT REDUCTION by 3m from 11m to 8m, REDUCE LATERAL SPREAD by 3m from 7m to 4m. Reason: Reduction to shape canopy, pruning to suitable points and maintaining natural aesthetic. Work undertaken to bring back to form and improve light conditions for both owner and neighboring properties. Tree has been reduced previously so work is part of an ongoing maintenance cycle. The pruning will not go beyond any previous points and sufficient time has elapsed to allow canopy regrowth. The tree will tolerate the pruning as specified above. Informative A: The sensitive management of the tree is greatly appreciated for landscape amenity, wildlife, wellbeing, and urban forest canopy for environmental benefits to mitigate the effects of climate change. Informative B: Wherever possible, please create habitat log piles in the garden from cut branches for wildlife and biodiversity.
