Proposal
Rear T1 Bay x 1 (Laurus nobilis) This 10m mature bay tree has previously been reduced. It has now outgrown it's location, with lateral growth touching the rear neighbours’ property and is growing into the other neighbour’s cherry tree. The canopy cuts out a significant amount of light from the client's garden. Suggested work:- crown reduction - reduce the height 4.5m - reduce the lateral spread 1-2.5m to shape - remove the basal suckers
