I intend to complete a crown reduction by a third on two chestnut trees in the front garden of 65 anson road. I am the responsible owner of these trees. I recently had a survey conducted of the property as I am selling and findings reported if trees continue to grow this could have structural issues for the supporting wall in the garden and the house itself.
