  Hornbeam x 9 - reduce crown height by approx 2m to significantly reduce the threat of failure and to maximise natural light. I wish to gain council approval to carry out a crown reduction on 9 Hornbeam trees. The trees were planted as a hedge, but have been left to form into mature trees. There are a number of cavities (highlighted in pics) and tight buttresses with included bark evident. They stand around 11 metres with minor deadwood evident, otherwise showing normal vigour. My client considers them to have a high amenity value and wants them managed. By reducing the height of the crowns this will reduce the threat of failure and increase natural light throughout the garden. All cuts will leave sufficient live growth and where necessary target pruned.

  Henley College Deanfield Avenue Henley-on-thames RG9 1UH

  Ash (T2 of TPO 09/2019) - Reduce back crown over single storey block D4 by a maximum of 4m at its widest point (work mainly relates to over extended limbs over roof). Reduce back low branches over the roof to create 3m clearance. Cutback branches from front of the adjacent building (D6) to create 2-3m clearance. To help balance the crown, reduce remaining crown by approx. 2m. To avoid altering the balance of the tree as a whole, the crown of the tree should be reduced in proportion to its original shape. All pruning cuts must be made at branch junctions, leaving sufficient live growth to maintain or enhance crown form.
