Proposal
This is to notify you that we will be trimming our hedge line trees in the corner of our property : Parkfield House, Holman Way , Topsham , EX3 0EN , consisting of a bay tree and two eucalyptus . We will be doing the work on 19 Feb . The work will all be carried out within the confines of our garden , we will not be encroaching onto the pavement . We also intend to remove one eucalyptus as it is less than two foot away from our garden wall which is listed. The eucalyptus is leaning towards the wall. The other side of the wall is a very busy pavement on the corner of Holman Way ,opposite the surgery. We need to remove this tree to ensure that it does not damage the wall and pavement .

Parkfield House Holman Way Topsham EX3 0EN
We would like to reduce the crown of our Copper Beach (see image 001 & 002) by up-to 2m. The work is mainly required on new growth branches that will be overhanging a plot of land that we have recently sold where at building works will be taking place (see red boundary on image 003) and the reduction will be balanced around tree to maintain its shape. Work will be undertaken by our regular tree surgeon Exe Trees. They have surveyed the tree in question Building work starts on the plot of land approx May this year; we would like to do this work in advance of that.
