Proposal

T1 - Mature Field Maple. Lift the canopy from 3 metres to approximately 6 metres from ground level and reduce the height from 16 metres to 13 metres to the appropriate growth points as there is excessive windsail on the main stem due to the ivy and deadwood and debris continues to fall in the surrounding area. Also to allow light to the surrounding properties
