Proposal

T1 & T2 Hawthorns - One tree has fallen across stream, the other has a substantial lean over the stream. Remove fallen hawthorn and remove heavily leaning sections of remaining hawthorn, retaining upright branches. T3 Dead Oak - Suspected armillaria. Remove, stump grind and replant with resistant species. T4 Variegated Acer - Remove. Sections of canopy have reverted to non-variegated leaves and area is overcrowded now that trees are more established. Surrounding trees are of greater significance. T5 Gleditsia - Crown raise up to 4m, thus removing over-extending branches towards rear of property. Reduce remaining over-extending branches on west side of canopy by approximately 3m to match up with rest of canopy.
