Lightly thin the remaining crown by up to 10%, concentrating on small, congested secondary branches and selectively removing crossing or rubbing branches. Retain an even distribution of foliage and the tree characteristic rounded, weeping form. Remove dead and damaged branches where present. No topping, pollarding or removal of major structural limbs is proposed. All pruning to follow BS 3998:2010 recommendations.
