Proposal

we would like to remove 2 sycamore trees from our garden, they are showing signs of stress eg flaking bark and are very close to neighbouring property. they are also leaning towards the said property and we are concerned about their integrity in poor weather. we would also like to trim back our yew trees which encroach on our own property as a matter of maintenance.
