Proposal

Large Beech tree to rear of property (No10 Mere Oaks). Suggested works include: A 2 meter crown reduction, 5 meter crown lift and approx 20% crown thin.

The pruning works aims to maintain its natural shape while reducing the overall size impact on the properties and maintaining its amenity value.
