The conifer is rather tall and is now overtaking the garden. We wish to either reduce the height of this tree up to 5m or take down completely if you would grant permission for the whole conifer to be removed. As this is so tall, wind may cause damage to fences and garage.

Walnut - removal because of excessive shading, low amenity value and proximity of 22.5 ft / 6.85 m to rear of Victorian properties. A qualified arborist (from Gardenworks Tree Surgery Ltd, Cambridge) has visited the site and advised removal of the tree because of its size is inappropriate for a small garden and it has low amenity value (it is not visible from the public road).
