Proposal
We have a huge tree in our front garden that needs pruning down. It's over hanging over the road and people's driveways and we are getting complaints. Just need permission to get it cut I believe. The tree is roughly 12 metres high, we want to reduce it down to about 6 metres where we can see it was cut originally many years ago
