T1 Sycamore - reduce 1.5m laterally away from driveway and house, prune to clear overhead cable by 1m. Reason: to clear building and phone line, and to reduce bird droppings and detritus on driveway and parked cars. The majority of this work will not be visible from the road so there will be no loss of amenity value. Total photosynthetic volume reduction will be less than 10% so there will be minimal impact on the tree. T2 Sycamore - reduce 2m laterally away from driveway and patio.

63 Central Avenue Brampton Huntingdon PE28 4QL
T1 Holm Oak - crown lift to 3m over garden and reduce 2m laterally on eastern and southern sides to clear rear of garage and neighbouring gardens. Remove major dead wood throughout crown. The tree has a spreading form, and whilst in sufficient space in it's own garden, reaches approximately 6-7 metres over gardens to the south, which is approx 40% of the total space in these gardens, and 4-5 metres over gardens to the east. The tree is also touching the garage of No.63 and needs to clear the building to prevent damage, and hangs low over the garden of No.63, which impedes access.
