Proposal

T1 - T2 - Reduce 2x Sycamore to match height of hedgerows (Approx 4-5m). Leave lower branches for screening. T3 - Reduce Sycamore on boundary to two lowest branches (Approx 4m Reason - reason for this is that the top's are starting to die out and drop into the neighbours side which could be a danger to people and could cause damage.
