T1 The willow mass which grows on the neighbours' boundary fence line to the north, shall be pollarded back to a height of 2 metres where all growth shall be removed to allow its regeneration in the coming spring. T2 The pussy willow with the low limb which extends out from the ground from the adjacent tree shall be cut back to the point of origin. The remaining tree shall then be sided up to reduce conflict over the boundary line. The remaining trees/hedge along the same eastern boundary, will also be cut back to a vertical line to the full height of the trees thus reducing conflict over the garden boundary.
