    T01 Beech - Crown reduce in height to approximately 20m (a reduction of approximately 4m). Crown reduce in width by up to 4m. Tree has recently lost its second major structural limb after a bark included junction failed. I believe the remaining trunk is prone to failure and the proposed crown reduction will reduce loading effect.

    T1 Mature cherry - Remove deadwood, crown lift to 2.5-3m from ground level to provide adequate clearance from the headstones and a height and lateral spread reduction of up to 2.5m. The primary aim of the proposed works is to reduce the overall crown weight and sail effect, thereby reducing wind resistance and the potential for branch failure or damage. A secondary benefit will be aesthetic. The tree is currently distinctly misshapen and leggy, and the proposed works will help to improve its overall form and balance
