19, Douai Grove, Hampton, TW12 2SR
1) Yew Tree. Labeled 'A' on sketch plan. Proposed works: 15 - 20 percent reduction of Tree's crown. Cuts to be made with a pole saw or chainsaw when up in the Tree. Debris to be put through chipper and thicker branches to be made into logs. 2) Yew Tree. Labeled 'B' on sketch plan. Proposed works. To cut back the Ivy growing through the Tree. & To cut back the 'overhanging' branches by roughly 50 percent. Cuts to be made at specific grow back points. The main aim is less overhang above the new patio being built. It should allow more sunlight into the garden too. The overhang is roughly 2.5 metres. I would prune around one third to a half of these off. ie Leaving around 1.25 - 1.5 metre branches. and all pruning back to where there is green growth. The proposed works would not affect the height of the tree. Or the width of the Tree. Just the face of the Tree
