Proposal

Front Garden T1 - Sycamore (south boundary) - Crown reduction of 2-3 metres all over, to give clearance from adjacent houses and alleviate weight, this will also clear telephone lines leading to 6 properties. T2 - Holly - Reduce by 3-4 metres in height as outgrowing its position. G1 - Fell all multi stemmed Sycamores to near ground level. These trees have regenerated from old rootstock and are not suitable for the location in which they are growing. Long term management solutions are limited due to tree species and previous management options.
