T1 Robinia - Fell to ground level. Reasons for works - The tree is located in very close proximity to a garage and greenhouse. This area of the garden has been disused for some years, but the property owner has plans to make the greenhouse a working part of the garden again. The tree has now become unsuitable for its location, as it provides significant shade to the greenhouse below. Due to its location, the options for pruning to provide adequate light below are limited. The property owner has indicated that they are already carrying out replanting in other parts of the garden and are happy to continue doing so to mitigate the loss of the tree. T2 Sycamore - Crown Lift by removing branch tips to provide 4.5 metres clearance above ground level and reduce the low, large limb over the flower bed extending towards the house by up to 2 metres to improve light to the flower bed below.
