  A1 - x2 Oak - Remove lowest limb growing towards the house from the smallest stem. Lightly crown reduce remainder of this stem by up to 1.5m by crown thinning the branch tips to re-shape up to 10%, follow that shape throughout the largest Oak tree, again thinning the branch tips to reduce the canopy up to 1.5m. Crown lift the canopy to 4m above ground level by removing out grown epicormic and sub-lateral branches only. Reason: The lowest limb nearest the house has in the past received heavy pruning which due to the trees age has not reacted with callus wood reliably, resulting in branch decay. The canopy has grown out so that the branches are touching the building; removing this limb down to the first branch break (approx 2ft away from the stem) will be a better long term solution to keeping the canopy away from the building and the removal of this limb will not detract from the shape both trees together have as the balance of the canopy will be equalled. The crown lift and light reduction will allow more light into the picture window of the building and re-balance the upper crown.
