Proposal
T1 Cercidiphyllum japonium - Appeared to die early this summer and so I want to wait till spring to make sure it is in fact dead T2 Ailanthus altissima - has been dying over the last year and is undisputably dead I have shown them to two tree surgeons and they both agree with this plan although they think the Cercidiphyllum is very likely dead

St Marys Church High Street Brinkley Suffolk

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
