Proposal

T1 & T2 - 2x Red Oak Trees (Quercus rubra) - Crown lift by removing secondary and sub-lateral branch growth only, to provide a vertical clearance of approximately 6.0 m between ground level and the lowest foliage tips, thereby achieving the desired clearance above the adjacent property & garden area All works shall retain the natural form of the crown and avoid the creation of large pruning wounds. Individual pruning wounds shall not exceed 60 mm in diameter. All cuts shall be made at suitable growth points in accordance with BS 3998:2010 Tree Work - Recommendations. The proposed works are considered necessary to provide appropriate clearance between the lower canopy of the two Red Oak trees and the adjacent property and garden area, while also improving natural light levels reaching the property and associated garden. The works are limited to a selective crown lift to approx 6.0m above ground level, achieved through the removal of secondary and sub-lateral branch growth only. No significant primary branches are proposed for removal and individual pruning wounds will not exceed approx 60mm in diameter.
