***TPO ASH & SYCAMORE**** T1 Multi Stemmed Ash Remove 2 x stems closest to fence, reduce remainder by 2-3 m to clear overhang to neighbours to rear and reshape, final height 10m spread 6m T63 Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) Crown Reduction - Reducing the height and spread of the tree by up to 3m. Final height 14m and spread 9m (This will alleviate overhang to neighbours but considerable shadow may still be cast after pruning) The alleyway will need to be monitored from both sides during this work for health and safety as shutting it would require a council order at some cost! T21 Leaning Yew Coppice at 1m from ground level, stacking logs on site and chipping brush (as with T2 the alley will need monitoring from both aspects for this to avoid closing it) Fell leaning Holly near base. T22 Sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus) Using tracked MEWP - fell to ground level - chipping brush, cutting smaller diameter timber to 1m for use in the garden, stacking bigger timber as habitat pile & felling main stem retaining as a single piece
