    G1 Trees all within the same group. Mature oak tree - remove deadwood, to then reduce the lateral spread by 2-2.5m and the height by approx 1-1.5m to mitigate the risk of failure due to the lateral growing form of the tree and woodpecker holes sited at the top of the tree. Singular small yew - fell to give clearance of the phone wires and this is a poor specimen interfering with other trees. Give clearance to the phone wire by 0.5m where possible without impacting major limbs. Second smaller oak remove deadwood. Yew overhanging road - prune lightly to the edge of the road to prevent damage to vehicles.
