Proposal

Very large and overgrown oak tree in the rear garden of known address above. This is causing many issues for tenant, landlord's property and neighbours surrounding. There is excess shading through many gardens and properties especially No. 4 and No. 2; the branches are encroaching on No. 2 property and also No. 4's conservatory. Concerns this may cause damage with bad weather this winter. There are low hanging branches and there are concerned they will break and fall. The tree is very large and with advice from contractor who attended site are for a 3 metre crown reduction and removal of limbs where needed. Can be seen from grove entrance position is rear left-hand side of garden.
