Yew Tree Rear Garden: Reduce the height by 2m to match the level of the previously reduced section, and trim the remainder to manage the spread. The tree's current height is 6m, and its crown spread is 5m After the proposed works, the tree's height is 4m, and the crown spread is 4m T3. Copper Beech Tree Rear Garden: Reduce new growth to previous reduction points, approx. 3m height and spread, retaining good growth furnishings to support crown development. If required, thin the branch structure to help create an even balance. Remove dead branches over 2.5cm in diameter. Inspect the crown for adversities and advise if necessary. The tree's current height is 17m, and its crown spread is 12m After the proposed works, the tree's height is 15m, and the crown spread is 9.5m
