6 Heather Brow Earby Barnoldswick Lancashire BB18 6LP
In the rear garden there is a self seeded ash tree just over the rear boundary. Tree has dieback and land at the back is being developed. Customer wants to reduce this ash tree back to the boundary to feel safe to go under and so nothing falls on garage. In the back border there is a cherry tree which is to be reduced by approx 1.5m max in height and blend shape to the sides leaving overall width for privacy screen. Small damson in the left hand border to remove (probably too small for notification anyhow.)
