I have previously indicated to Mr Critchley that my next door neighbours Mr and Mrs R Williams are complaining regarding the height of the conifer. In an attempt to appease them I am seeking to remove 6 feet off the height. However, I do not want to carry out any works if they would compromise the health and/or appearance of the conifer. Therefore I will be guided by you as to how much, if anything, you consider appropriate in these circumstances. The works would be carried out by a qualified Tree Surgeon-a Mr G Jones of 22 Briars Brook.
