T19: English Oak - Reduction on southern aspect by 1m to increase clearance from the house T20: English Oak - Reduction on southern aspect by 3m. Remove failed limb with hazard beam on southern side. This tree has been pruned heavily previously, resulting in vigorous re growth which is now encroaching on the House, so the reduction on the southern aspect is intended to reduce the risk of failure and proven damage caused by the tree rubbing on the building.
