  T12 - Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) - carry out a 30% crown thin through the selective removal of smaller branches, distributed evenly throughout the canopy, retaining the trees natural shape, overall height and spread. As part of the thinning, selectively remove crossing and rubbing branches. Carry out a crown clean to remove dead, broken and damaged branches. Additionally, selectively remove the branches growing towards and contacting the gable end of the property. Estimated diameters of the final pruning cuts: 100mm. Raise the canopy slightly on the roadside, just to ensure we keep the foot path clear. Woodlands, North Shields, Tyne and Wear TPO 2017

  T1 - Sycamore - Crown Lift over Garage: Crown lift the lower canopy to achieve a 3-metre vertical clearance above the garage roof. Lateral Reduction (Infrastructure Clearance): Prune back lateral branches to clear the adjacent street lamppost, ensuring a 1-metre clearance to prevent obstruction and damage to public lighting. Utility Clearance: Selectively prune branches interacting with, or in close proximity to, the overhead BT and fibre utility lines to eliminate the risk of line abrasion and service disruption. Crown Clean: Crown clean the entire canopy to remove dead, dying, or diseased wood to improve the tree's health and structural safety.
