    Copper Beech - T1 - situated at bottom (SW) end of garden of 14 Matford Avenue. Proposed works: Canopy reduction of 1.5 - 2m. (leaving a remaining canopy width of 8-10m and canopy height of 14 - 15.5m) Justification for works- The works are proposed to allow more natural light into the property and neighbouring gardens and to prevent the tree from obstructing views. The pruning will be carried out in line with good arboricultural practice, maintaining the trees health, form, and amenity value while keeping it at a suitable size for its setting. The tree has previously been reduced by 25% and recovered very well.
