    A1 - Wild service tree, Remove. Replace with a Lime tree. Reasons: likely future damage to the tall boundary brick wall (direct and indirect damage, due to root flare and stem growth), based on their significant growth potential if left to continue to grow without management, inappropriate location in relation to other adjacent built elements, crown reduction work considered inappropriate as a form of long term management and greater light availability to the adjacent Mulberry tree.
