T1 - Pine Tree - Reduce by 3m in height and by 1.5 m around the sides. The tree is only about 10 years old, but it is already over 10m tall. It is situated in a small courtyard. As such, it is inappropriate to allow it to fully mature in height. It is very close to the neighbouring property and is lifting paving stones.
