4 No large mature apple trees in rear garden, on right-hand side, approximately 15-20m from the house, positioned in a row along the right-hand boundary wall. These trees have become significantly overgrown due to a lack of maintenance resulting in excessive shading across the garden. Proposed works are to heavily reduce the overall height and spread of all four trees to restore proportion and light levels and potentially remove up to two trees entirely to improve spacing, long-term health and ease of future maintenance

A crab apple tree situated within the small front garden. The tree has become overgrown and disproportionately large for the confined garden area, with a dense crown extending close to the house and over the front garden. Its size and position make the garden difficult to maintain and reduce light to the front elevation and adjoining windows. The proposal is to remove the tree and stump and restore the front garden
