Proposal
T1 - Juglans regia to crown reduction by 2-3metres also crown lifting by 2 metres to stop branches obstructing the driveway. T2 Taxus baccata - Tree is now touching the house walls and in danger of dislodging roof tiles in windy conditions. It is also leaning towards the house. The house does not have modern foundations. Height of tree to be eventually reduced to 3-4 metres rather than being completely felled. The plan is to reduce tree to form a large topiary form over the next three years. T3 & T4 Taxus baccata - Crown lifting and reduction to laterals by approximately 2 - 3 metres as the branches are obstructing the driveway. T5 & T6 Betula utilis and Fraxinus excelsior- Both trees have grown up through the hedge. These need to be felled as they are damaging the thatched roof of No 89. T7 Malus - this tree is diseased and has a number of dead branches and needs to be felled completely. The tree will be replaced by an Ilex "Handsworth New Silver" or Ilex aquifolium 'Argentea marginata' T8 Continued shaping of the Taxus baccata into a large topiary hedge of approx 5 metres height.

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.
