Proposal

T1 Lime: Crown raise to the height of 7m to allow more natural light into the garden. T2 Cedar: Crown raise to the height of 5m on the field side only by removing the lowest limb off the first main scaffold branch. Reduce the lateral spread over the garden side only from 10m to 6m from the main stem cutting back to viable secondary growth points. Reason being is they have had numerous limbs fail recently and by doing this it should relive some weight out of the limbs and stop wind sail. Remove dead wood and thin by 10% in the way of removing any duplicating or crossing branches. T3 Sweet Chestnut: Pollard to old pollard points leaving it a height of 7m and a crown spread of 1m from main stem. The main leaders have large amount of decay with a split at the top crown break. T4 Sycamore: Pollard to old pollard point leaving it a height of 17m and a canopy spread of 4m from the main stem. T5 Sycamore: Pollard to old pollard point leaving it a height of 17m and a canopy spread of 4m from the main stem T6 Yew: Reduce lateral spread only from 7m leaving a canopy spread of 5m from the main stem cutting back to viable secondary growth points and following natural flowing line with the top of the tree. Reason being it is in very close proximity to the property and garage. This would also balance the tree out and look more aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
