Proposal

Yew (T2) 1m Reduction on some side branches that over hang the garden to help bring the tree back into shape and to reduce the overhang of the heavier branches into the garden Bird Cherry (T3) Remove to ground level as it is being crowded by the yew it is overhanging the drive way and has potential to cause damage to cars and property. Removing the cherry will allow room for the more substantial trees to grow. (Amended)
