  T1 - mature Horse Chestnut - This tree is very large and is bifocated at 4m with a questionable union. and is positioned over both number 35 and the next door neighbors children's bedrooms. This has been a point of contention as the neighbor is concerned about the tree in the high winds. One branch has already fallen. The tree is also causing excessive shading for both property's. I propose a 3.5m reduction in height and 2.5m reduction on the sides. Removal of deadwood. Crown lift to 4.5m.
