Proposal
T2 - Southernmost tree. Permission is sought to remove two metres from lower branches on the North East side of the tree - to match other side and 6 metres in height to minimise risk of another limb failure;- This tree is roughly 28 metres in height and displays limb failure at top of crown - this has in fact caused damage to the roof of the property in the latest storms. There are three leaders at approx 20 metres showing potential historic pruning cut. Unbalanced Crown, North East side needs 2 metres removed from lower limbs to match the opposite side. Multiple leaders need to be reduced by 6 metres in height to minimise risk of another limb failure.
