T1 - Monterey Cypress - Reduce end weight of lateral branches by up to 1.5 meters, remove compromised dynamic cable brace and install new. cable brace has been installed previously (date unknown), this has no slack and is under constant tension, the contact point with the stems is now strangling the tree. I believe the end weight reduction will reduce some of the constant tension on the current cable brace, allowing us to remove it and correctly install a new dynamic cable brace with a yearly inspection plan to monitor any adverse movement/tension.

Rose Cottage Rownham Hill Leigh Woods BS8 3PU
Rear garden (Top of steps near driveway) T1 - Lawson's cypress by steps - remove to as close to ground level as possible. Holly saplings adjacent and under canopy of Lawsons cypress, remove to as close to ground level as possible. T2 - Small Holly near house - remove to as close to ground level as possible. G3 - Holly group adjacent road - reduce in height by approx 2m and shape sides to match. T1 & T2 removals are part of on-going tree management. The holly is too close to the house and providing unwanted shade. T1 is atop of a small retaining wall, adjacent electrical wire and has previously been topped. Tree is of poor quality and located within a poor location and likely to cause future damage to structures. G3 - To be ongoing managed as a hedge to block the adjacent road noise and lights.
