Proposal
This small pocket of valued community land contains three nice trees - Ginkgo, ornamental Acer and what is believed to be a Whitebeam. All are overgrown and the tops are fouling telegraph wires however this application - for all three - involves regaining access underneath due to low hanging branches. So this will be a crownlift to bring the current five foot low canopy to eight foot to allow people to walk in the park without bumping their heads, plus a little for light. So more precisely - remove all low hanging foliage on the three trees to give eight foot headroom.
