Proposal
T1 - Portuguese Laurel - Overhanging the road and the house and encroaching on the neighbouring trees (See pic 1) Dismantle this shrub to ground level leaving a coppiced stump for the regrowth to rejuvenate and maintain accordingly. T2 - Western Red Cedar - This has been trimmed as a hedge in previous years but hasn't been maintained for several years (see pic 2) There are 2 to 3 metres of vertical regrowth from previous points. 2 Primary limbs have re-rooted on top of the wall (see pic 3). Would like to reduce the hedge to previous points making cuts of approx 15cm on vertical growth and trim the sides. Also remove the 2 primary limbs from the wall leaving pruning cuts at the steam leaving pruning cuts of approx 30cm. T3 - Pittosporum - These 2 shrubs have been previously reduced but not been done in several years leaving re-growth approx 2m. I would like to prune to previous points making cuts no bigger than 10cm. T4 - This is a group of ivy clad dead trees. The Wild Cherry has a small amount of foliage of lower branches but very sparse (see pic 5). I would like to dismantle the dead trees to ground level. T5 - Laurel - this is the neighbours shrub that is overhanging number 36 and rubbing on there asbestos roof (see pic 6). I would like to remove the overhaning tertiary branches to create a boundary hedge/screen
