    T25,T26 and T27 3no. LIMES. Reduce the overall height of all trees from 5m to 3.5m and spread approx 3.5m to 2.5m. Crown thin up to 15%. Crown lift raise the lower branches to a height of 3-4m from ground level. Removal of Deadwood: Remove any dead, diseased, or broken branches from the trees to ensure safety and reduce the risk of falling debris. General Maintenance Pruning: Ensure all cuts are clean and in accordance with best arboricultural practices, keeping the trees healthy while reducing the risk of overgrowth in the future. Additional Information in Support of Application: The two trees in question have grown significantly over time and are now causing multiple issues that impact the safety, accessibility, and quality of life at the property: Overgrown Structure: The trees have outgrown the available space, extending branches and roots beyond reasonable limits, which is not only unsightly but also creates an overbearing presence. Obstruction of Light: The canopy of the trees is obstructing a significant amount of natural light from entering the property, particularly affecting rooms facing the trees. This lack of light reduces the livability and comfort inside the house. Access and Safety Concerns: The overgrowth is hindering safe access in and out of the driveway. The branches and roots are encroaching onto the driveway area, making it difficult to manoeuvre vehicles safely. There?s a risk of the branches or falling debris causing injury or property damage. ...
