G1- Fell a row of 5 Cypress trees that have long outgrown their position. The area is dominated by these trees, whose removal over the long term is unavoidable due the inevitable failure of parts. Removal of single specimens is not being considered due to the co-dependancy of these trees in respect to the winds that affect them. The removal of these trees is considered sensible management of the area, as they put several ornamental trees in the shade, and have outgrown their original purpose of a wind and visual barrier for a domestic property.
