Proposal

T1 - Conifer Removal (0549). This tree has been very badly affected by the recent drought and has sadly lost most of its greenery. I have recommended this tree is removed while it is still safe to climb and dismantle. T2 - Sycamore. Upon inspection of this tree I noticed some quite extensive bark inclusion at the lowest fork near the base. The canopy has become quite heavy and would benefit from a major crown reduction/pollard to reduce sail effect in high winds and significantly reduce the load on the low fulcrum point. 5m crown reduction/pollard finishing height of 10m. Reframe for good onward form T3 - Redwood dead wood removal (0554). Obvious dead limb in lower canopy to be removed, dead wood throughout T4 - Ash (0556) This tree is starting to encroach on the building and is blocking natural light from windows. It has become unbalanced on property side as there appears to have been some prior work on the neighbouring side. I have recommended a crown reduction on property side to balance the crown, all back to sustainable growth points. 1.5 to 3m (blend side into the tops with varying meterage) reduction back to sustainable growth points on property side to reduce weight of heavy and extended limbs, clearance from building
