Proposal

G1 – Hornbeam x3, crown lift to provide a ground clearance of 2.5m by reducing/removing secondary branching, thin the crown of the individual trees by up to 15% to include some subtle reduction of elongated branching of the crown periphery to improve aesthetics. Localised reduction of the crown periphery to provide a 2m clearance from the street lamp to improve light splay. T2 – Cherry, reduce the crown to provide a maximum clearance of 2.5m from the fabric of the building, reduce/reshape the remainder of the crown to retain crown symmetry, crown lift to provide a ground clearance of 2.5m. T3- Rowan, reduce/reshape crown periphery by up to 1m to improve crown symmetry, crown lift to ensure 2m clearance over footway. T4- Cherry, crown lift over footway only to provide a 2.5m clearance, carry out a selective end weight reduction by up to 2.5m of extended branching over road/parking area to provide clearance for high sided vehicles.
