Proposal

T1 - Weeping Pear - Reshape back to umbrella shape as it was when we moved in 4 years ago. Currently tree is approx 4.7 m diameter, 4m height and reduction will be at most by 1.2 m diameter and 0.7 m height. T2 - Rowan - Prune back away from phone line to line of road edge, tree currently fouling the wires. T3 - Sycamore - Pollard to final height of 6 to 7 metres to match tree 4 and tree X on neighbours property. Tree 3 is threatening damage to neighbours property (Turners Barn, The Cliffs, Kintbury), both from root growth and potential for tree to fall from its precarious position on the top of a steep bank, tree 3 is also shading the garden of our property significantly. T4 - Sycamore - Repollard to previous level of 6 to 7 metres - tree on border with Turners Barn, The Cliffs, Kintbury, work discussed with neighbour.
