Oak Tree (T1) - crown reduction of up to 30% to get accessive weight out of the branches as the tree is very large and close to a number of properties with structures below. Since the last 30% reduction the crown has grown back very full and is need of thinning for the health of the tree and to help break up the giant shadow, the tree is casting over the surrounding properties.

Mature Lime tree (T1) - Dead wooding works throughout the whole tree for duty of care; alongside a crown congestion clean. Mature Yew tree (T2) - Dead wooding works and crown raising to 2.1-2.4m over footpath due to the tree blocking access to the footpath. Mature Cherry tree (T3) - Dead wooding works, removal of ivy from base and continual monitoring of the tree to see if the decline worsens. If this is the case, we would then recommend a full removal and if possible, plant a replacement of a similar tree. Mature Beech tree (T4) - A coronet cut to speed the process of healing along for the tree. Conifer (T5) - Crown raise, and removal of 1.8-2.2m to allow access to gutters for property maintenance.
