Proposal

T1 - Oak - Remove deadwood. Reduce small branch stub over garden to short stump, retaining cavity at source for habitat value. Reduce secondary low branch touching tiles back to source (1m from main trunk). Reduce lateral tips from extended branches on north to east quadrant of canopy by 2-3m back to suitable growth points to check apical dominance and reduce overhang of building. Crown lift smaller secondary and tertiary branch tips to create 4-4.5m clearance above ground level.
