  T1 - Scots Pine - Fell - due to heavy lean and poor quality. T6 - Thuja - crown reduction by 2 metres, from 23 metres to 21 metres. T7 - Scots Pine - Fell - signs of dieback throughout crown, poor crown structure. T8 - Scots Pine - Fell - poor branch structure, unbalanced crown towards property. T9 - Scots Pine - Fell - crown is overhanging property. T10 - Scots Pine - Fell - large failed limb, crown is overhanging property. Replanting: T1, T10, T9 and T8 will be replaced by a mixture of species as outlined in the tree survey – Field Maple, Hornbeam, Rowan, Crab apple Hawthorn, Holly and Yew – Planted in positions that allow them to establish without the same future conflict with building boundaries.

  T1-Ash - Reduce the lateral branches back by 2-2.5m. Reason -This tree has a rough lateral branch to trunk length of 6m and overhangs the neighbouring property. By making these smaller diameter cuts, this would reduce the branch weight over the property while bringing the tree into better overall balance. The opposite side of the tree grows over a dark drive entrance, so the tree has searched for light over the property.
