Proposal
Tree A - One Pink flowering Cherry Tree - Fell / removal of entire tree which is causing damage to a retaining wall, forcing it to lean, due to larger structural roots. (Replacement tree in near future using the selection suggested as options in the pre planning advice).Tree B - One Horse Chestnut Tree - Carry out a staged crown reduction (less risk to tree) - Crown reduce the tree at a height of 10-12m above ground level, preserving all small shoots growing above the original pollard point. (In the future, when regrowth is no less than 3m and no more than 5m long, apply again to crown reduce at a height of 6-7m above ground level).
