    (1) Goat Willow at the front. This has now become quite large and is in danger of pushing the wall over. Reduce to leave all main stems cut off at approximately 2.5m. Remove the smaller basal growths. (2) Goat Willow to the side of the house. This too has now grown quite large and is overfilling the space. Reduce its height by approximately 50% (to leave approximately 4.5m tall). Cut the sides back in proportion. (3) Elder at the left of the shed. This now looks quite poor. Remove the worst of the deadwood only.

    27 Dormers Close Tetbury Gloucestershire GL8 8HJ

    T1 - Sycamore tree to be crown reduced and balanced. This tree is absolutely massive in comparison to the very small garden behind this property, and the garden has nothing growing in it at all as this tree now completely covers the whole garden. The branches are very nearly touching the house, there is significant dead wood in the centre of the crown and the tree is very misshapen. There was a large Ash tree growing next to it at number 28 that was removed due to Ash Dieback some years ago. This removal has left the Sycamore tree very two dimensional with most of the canopy over the garden of number 27. There is a very large lateral scaffold limb protruding from approximately one meter from the ground out of the side of the main trunk, that probably has nearly half of the canopy growing from it. Currently the tree has a height of approx. 12-14 meters, with a spread of approx. 7-8 meters north and east, approx. 6-7 meters south and approx. 2-3 meters west. Proposal is to reduce the height by approx. 4-5 meters, the spread by approx. 2-3 meters north and east, approx. 2-3 meters south and approx. 0.5 meters west to blend and balance the canopy. Also to remove the dead stem top in the centre.
