Cypress (T1) - Fell - Tree has been allowed to grow from mixed hedge, felling will allow space for adjacent Liquidambar Slender Silhouette to fill in to Rowan (T2) - Fell - Tree is in poor physiological condition due to competition from previously felled trees and climbing rose. Felling will also provide space and sightlines on adjacent pine Laburnum (T3) - Coppice - Reduce height to ca. 1m, removing growth from road and bringing flowering growth down in to human eyeline Copper Beech (T4) - Fell - Leaning due to competition from previously removed conifers, and with significant and increasing damage from squirrels. To be replaced with a smaller flowering tree, species tbc Cypress (T5) - Fell - Tree is uninteresting and would allow space for a tree with more interest Cedar (T6) - Fell - Tree is suffering from progressive deterioration from Cedar Needle Blight. Removal will allow replacement with a Swamp Cypress, in time giving a tree of similar scale Laurel (T7) - Reduce to 1m - This will allow the laurel to be maintained by hedgetrimming at a more manageable size
