  Rear Side Boundary G1 - Bay & Pittosporum - Reduce to a finished height of approximately neighbouring property gutter height. Trim the remaining canopy's hard back to previous pruning points & shape. Remove epicormic growth from both trees to achieve clear stems. T2 - Lower Garden Area - 1x Pittosporum - Reduce in height to approximately neighbouring property gutter height. Trim the remaining canopy hard back to previous pruning points & shape. T3 - 1x Viburnum - Crown reduce in height by removing approximately 1.50 metres from branch tips while retaining the main framework & shape of the crown & therefore a high proportion of the foliage bearing structure. All pruning cuts to be made at suitable growth points Remove all cut material from site & return to a Devon Tree Services depot for recycling, leaving the area safe, clean & tidy. Justification for Proposed Works The proposed works to the Bay, Pittosporum, and Viburnum are intended to maintain the trees at an appropriate size in a residential garden setting and to prevent them from becoming over-dominant. The works will improve light levels into both the garden and the adjacent properties, reducing shading while retaining the trees as amenity features within the conservation area. All reductions will be sympathetic, with pruning cuts made at suitable growth points in accordance with BS 3998:2010 Tree Work Recommendations. Canopies will be trimmed back to previous pruning points to maintain natural shape and form, while retaining a high proportion of the foliage-bearing structure to ensure continued health and vitality. Epicormic growth will be removed to provide clear stems and improve overall tree form. The proposed works are considered proportionate, ensuring the trees remain healthy and in keeping with their setting, while balancing the reasonable enjoyment of the property by the occupants.
