Remove dead wood, minor thinning works to improve light penetration where necessary, no more that 30% of crown removal at any single operation.

T2 rear garden: Crown thinning and removal of deadwood, reduction pruning, removal of all leaf area and woody tissue not to exceed 30% of total biomass. Removal of deadwood. Crown reduction will not exceed 4.55m (of remaining crown area), from a maximum reduction in 1.95 m in crown dia.
