  T1-Horse Chestnut - Reduce and thin crown by up to 3 meters from 8 metres to 5 metres. This tree has multiple stems and has been pollarded historically. We may need to remove some branches back to this point but need to try and keep a good shape and screen. Until we start work and climb the tree to inspect the old cuts we won’t know the extent of the reduction needed
