Proposal

RIVER GROUNDS T9 - Robinia (Robinia frisia pseudoacacia) Shorten north most limb by 5m to improve T8 & T10 and to promote internal growth. Reduce remaining crown by 3m all round to balance and shape and reduce end weight on heavy leaning stems - following recent shed limb and suspect unions at base of multistem tree. T194 - English Oak (Quercus robur) Reduce low limb to north (with bracing attached) back to kink in limb at 5m from main stem. Reduce laurel to allow sun to remaining oak limb.
