3 Mere Cottages Withybed Corner Walton On The Hill Surrey KT20 7UH
We would like to reduce the crown of the ash tree at the rear of our garden by around 30-40% of its current height and width to allow more sunlight into the garden at the rear of our property. The excessive shading prevents growth of grass and other garden plants. We would also like to reduce the crown of the yew tree, adjacent to the ash at the end of our garden by around 20-30% to allow more sunlight into our garden and also prevent the growth of the lower branches from damaging our shed roof.
