Scots Pine Scots Pine to remove sections of major deadwood greater than 15mm in diameter and raise the canopy to approximately 3.5m. To reduce the crown by 1-1.25m. There is an area of dysfunction around the crown break which looks like a significant included union. The tree survey prior to planning picked up on this dysfunction and recommended a 50% reduction. My sense is a 10-15% reduction would more than mitigate against any adverse wind loading and retain the tree in a suitable scale and with enough foliar material to sustain the tree for many years.

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.
