T1 Oak- 1.5m crown reduction and removal of deadwood. Reason: Works are being carried out due to the southern side of the crown rubbing on a neighbouring property. A 1.5m crown reduction will stop damage to next door and keep the crown of the tree symmetrical. This will also reduce wind sail/shedding branches in the event of extreme weather (parked cars and footpath directly underneath) All pruning will be carried out to BS3998.
