We are requesting permission to reduce T3 by up to 2m on the left hand side, T3 has previously been reduced on the right hand side and ideally needs to be rebalanced. T3 is currently 17m wide, once the works have been completed the overall crown width will be 15m. Because of previous works the tree has an abnormal growth structure and as such its hard to quantify the remaining crown size
