Proposal

T1 - Situated in front of properties No. 21-23 Highclere Court. Tree has outgrown its position, with branches now touching the windows and balcony of the apartment block thus posing a significant health and safety issue. Re-pollard tree, cutting back to historic cutting points by reducing 3-4m from the tips over the entire canopy, back into good shape and starting a new healthy pruning/pollarding regime which ultimately will encourage a new and healthy growth (Works subject to TPO 626/0068/1964)
