Proposal

Tree reference G2 - 3rd Western Red Cedar as you come up the drive for Rowcroft. You can see some time ago the very bottom branch on the south side was removed. Remove the two lowest branches that are the south side of the tree which hangover onto 7 Pilmuir Avenue property. We have seen that their two branches are coming nearer to house as well as hanging over patio and washing line where bits of the trees are geeting in our baby's clothes etc.
