Proposal

There are numerous ash trees in this location, 3 trees are currently overhanging the industrial units. One tree is currently damaging the roof of one unit from a large branch. It is proposed that these trees are reduced to approx 10ft to remove the danger of collapse onto the industrial units in this location. The other 2 trees are heavily leaning towards the buildings and are engulfed in ivy and have not leafed in the last couple of years. No replanting is required as location would reinstate the dangers currently in place at this location.
