Templewood 68 Long Park Chesham Bois Buckinghamshire HP6 5LFAwaiting decisionConifer - reduce where it extends over driveway back to growth points as close to edge of drive as possible, up the full height of the tree. On some branches where there are no suitable growth points, we may have to reduce to the main stem, but this will be minimised as much as possible. The longer branches will be reduced by 1.5 to 2 metres subject to there being a suitable live pruning point (as its a conifer), or less if not. This reduction distance will reduce as we work up the height of the canopy as the branches reduce in length, until the reduction blends out into the top of the tree - no height will be removed from the tree. The purpose of the work is to reduce the lateral canopy overhang over the drive, and maintain the canopy so it does not continue to encroach further over the driveway as it is currently.Received 19 Aug 2026PL/26/05955/TP
