To also reduce the sides by up to 0.5m, bringing the crown spread from 4m to 3m; T2 Hornbeam (Opposite numbers 6 & 7): Reduce in height by approximately 2.5m to 3m, bringing the height from 8m to 4.5m.

To also reduce the side away from the balcony by up to 0.5m, bringing the crown spread from 2.8m to 2.3m; This is to prevent the trees from getting too big for the area and rubbing on buildings / balconys and to match the height / shapes of the other two trees that have been recently reduced within the row.
