Proposal
T1 Cherry - Remove all dead/burnt branches on the eastern side of canopy. Selectively reduce the 3-4 overlong shoots on the remainder of the tree back into the main canopy outline to create a more rounded canopy shape, sections of approximately 2m removed. T2 Indian Bean tree - Raise canopy height by 1m to improve clearance over buildings and neighbouring gardens. Thin by 10%. Remove all large diameter dead branches. T3 Large Poplar on the boundary - Reduce by 4-5m from tips to create a more compact and manageable framework going forward, taking canopy height from approximately 18m to 14m and width from 8m to 6m. T4 Multi-stemmed Bay tree right up against the boundary wall and overhanging neighbouring gardens - Reduce right down by approximately 30%, 4-5m from tips, to create a more compact and safer framework to be allowed to regenerate, taking canopy height from approximately 12m to 7m and width from 10m to 5m. T5 Sycamore - Strip ivy down to ground level and remove lower trunk epicormic growth.
