  T1 - Lime - Approx. 16m in height with. spread of approx. 7m There was an application made in June 2026 which was accepted by the council to reduce this tree all round by 1.5m - 26/0668/TPO When we came to complete the work in August, we noticed a significant decline in the trees health. The main canopy appears to be dying back with very sparse foliage on the upper and outer branches. Please see attached photo which was taken on 11th of August. The owner of the tree would like to request a reduction of up to 6m - as depicted in the photograph with red lines, it is hoped that with this level of reduction it will help the tree to regenerate as there did appear to be some foliage on the lower limbs and close to the main stem.
