Proposal

Lime x3 (T1, T2) - Re-pollard back to previous most recent pollard points. Remove lowest branches over garden on each tree, raising the crowns to 5m. Reduce (T3) down to the union below the pollard heads (70cm below previous cuts). Lime (T4) - pollard at old pollard heads, taking 6m of regrowth off. The work is aimed at letting more light into the garden to allow the other plants to grow, and increase wildlife and vegetation around the pond area.
