    T3 - Ash - Re-pollard. This will be removing the last 3-4 years' growth back to the previous points (approximately 3-4m) T2 - Lime - Re-pollard. This will be removing the last 2-3 years' growth. No more than 2m. T1 - Larch - Reduce the height by approximately 2-3m and bring the sides in to match. The tree is getting very tall for its location. Reasons are the regular pruning of lime and mountain ash to maintain shape and tidiness of trees, and with larch to take off top which is partly dead and dangerous.
