2 High Green Great Shelford CB22 5EG
T1 - Mature Sycamore - This tree is in good health. However it is very large and in close proximity to the neighbors property. In a recent set of high winds several large bows came down, one narrowly missing a car and another smashing the neighbors fence. Obviously concern has been raised. I propose a 2.5m sympathetic crown reduction to growth points, with an aim to reduce weight and sail and make safe. Removal of deadwood and cutting away from the telephone lines. Work to be carried out in mid winter.

T1 - Cherry tree - Reduce crown by about 3m, or, if this is not possible reduce the crown where it overhangs 67 Hemingford Road by a similar amount. Reason - This would reduce the overshadowing of the roof of 67 Hemingford Road and also prevent branches impinging on telephone wires connecting to 65 Hemingford Road.
