    8 Bro Madog Old Colwyn Colwyn Bay LL29 8RU

    Involves a general re-shaping involving a crown reduction and thinning to a specification within BS3998 -2010 and as agreed by the tree surgeon and planning officer.. A reduction of 2 .5 m was mentioned but I would welcome intervention and advice so that the tree is shaped symmetrically and retains the character of its crown. Also to check and remove any areas of decay that would benefit surrounding properties in the event of high wind. In addition, the removal of a small (12cm diameter), low, partially decayed over hanging branch toward No.6 Rhodfa Sant Elian, which was damaged by high winds.
