Mature Oak (T1) requires a 20% selective crown reduction and a 30% crown thin to allow for better light penetration into neighbouring garden. This will reduce sail-effect within the canopy and reduce the overall weight leading to better stability. Tree appears to be in good health, showing no signs of disease and little deadwood.
