Proposal

(T1) Copper Beech - remove larger vertical shoots off low branch on east side of stem 7m above ground level back 4-5m in length and reduce all other branch tips off this branch by 2m. Reduce canopy height by approximately 3m, cuts should be graded into the surrounding canopy to create a lower but natural looking canopy shape. Reduce tips of lateral branches on northwest and east side by 1-2m and carry out a climbing inspection of cavity to measure depth / extent of decay and take photos in cavity. (025/2005/TPO).
