  G1 - Beech hedge - Cut back to previous historical cut to a height of 3 metres. Reason: The hedge is getting too big, and the owner of the house feels it needs to be reduced to a more manageable height. G2 - Laurel shrub - Cut back to a height of 3 metres (just above the gutter height of the bungalow). Reason: the shrub is far too tall and needs a good prune

These works are intended to reduce the risk of limb failure, lessen the likelihood of contact with the adjacent barn roof and create a stronger, safer crown structure whilst retaining the tree's natural appearance.
