T3 Lime: - Remove significant sized deadwood (this will remove dead & moribund material that has a diameter larger than 45mm & 1 meter in length) - Remove broken hung up branches - Remove basal epicormic growth up to crown break. - Remove internal dense clusters of epicormic growth within the crown & thin thinner areas of epicormic growth to allow light to filter through the crown. - Prune lower branches to provide a clearance of up to %m fgl. - Prune branch tips growing towards neghboring property to provide a clearance of up to 2.5m from built structure. T4 Indian Chestnut: - Remove sections of ivy & carry out an aerial survey.

Where thought necessary this may entail the removal of small diameter (<60mm) primary branches so as not to introduce large wounds close to the stem of the tree.
