Proposal
Prune due to overhand into neighbours garden – Hawthorn tree Holly tree – Cut down due to 2/3rds? Overhanging neighbours…..? garden + light The Hawthorn needs pruning as 90 percent of it overhangs into the neighbours garden. The holly tree is huge, blocks sunlight into 75 percent of the garden & patio, doesn't allow for any lawn to grow and is wide enough to over hang into both neighbours garden. I really would like it removed so that I can have a lawn and plants. There will be trees remaining, apart from the palm tree I don't know what the others are but they are starting to bud and blossom.
