Proposal

Yew (T1) - Reduce yew on east boundary bordering road back into height of yew hedge (2.5 meter overall height). Tree causes excessive shading to house. Replant two replacement trees: Tulip tree and Magnolia Plum (T2) 20% thin to reduce weight on branches. Tree is already braced and there are signs of weakness with fungi growing on trunk.
