Works to trees subject to a Tree Preservation Order, namely; 1) TPO18/00006 -Beech Tree at top of driveway where it splits down to our neighbour's property. This needs the crown raising so that it is away from vehicles and any deadwood removing so it does not fall on anyone below. 2) TPO18/00006-Pine. Monteray Pine in the formal garden area: This needs a foliage tip lift by upto 2m. Plus dead wooding. This is to keep the weight away from the cottage/slope of the garden to protect it from future storms. All works to be completed by Tyler Tree Surgeon.
