Proposal

Large Conifer Tree. Reduce the overall height of the tree by approximately 5 metres, while retaining its natural form and ensuring its continued health and structural integrity. Reason: The current height and mass of the tree are significantly restricting natural light to the rear of the property and neighbouring areas. The root system has begun to cause damage to an adjacent pathway and is placing pressure on the boundary fence, leading to ongoing maintenance and safety concerns. A controlled reduction will help manage the trees future growth, reducing the likelihood of further damage and the need for more severe intervention in the future
