    Works to trees protected by an Area TPO T1 is a mature Oak that appears in decline. (see photo 1) Proposed works: A branch reduction of 3 metres over 2 growing seasons (1.5 metres per prune) and deadwood to imitate a natural crown retention. Reasons why: The health of the tree is visible poor and the long laterals have potential health and safety hazard for neighbours and road users, A phased reduction should enable recovery of the tree and also reduce the risk of failure of the limbs. T2 is a mature oak. Proposed works; crown reduction of approximately 2 metres Lift crown by 3 metres
