To reduce the overhang from the property back to boundary line. 1 x Rowan - Sever Ivy to create a 1m section of Ivy. 1 x Horse Chestnut - Crown reduce overall by 1m to suitable growth points while retaining the main framework & shape of the crown & therefore a high proportion of the foliage bearing structure. 3 x Ash trees - Crown lift all these trees to the agreed points whilst quoting.
