    Trim back 3 x mature trees that are situated in a neighbouring garden close to our boundary wall. The trees are: 1) acacia, 2) multi-stemmed lime, 3) sycamore. The trimming would cut back branches to main junctions; maximum diameter estimated about 6 inches, but most smaller, on our side of the boundary wall. This work has been done a couple of times before; repeated trimming every 5 years or so is required to limit the heavy shade caused by these trees to our garden (Waterden Road Conservation Area)..
