Proposal

T1 - Copper Beech - It is proposed to apply fundamental reshaping of the tree by 1. Crown thinning, 2. Crown lifting, 3. Crown reduction. The extent to which this can properly be achieved requires a detailed on site discussion. It is impossible for the owner to illustrate the proposed work effectively on these photographs (this comment applies to the work on the Walnut tree). T2 - Walnut - the proposal is to remove 1 lower branch overhanging 29 Mill Lane, 1 lower branch overhanging 31 Mill Lane, 1 dead branch overhanging Beech Road property and removal of a small number of small lower branches. Branch overhanging 29 Mill Lane - grown to extend birds are fouling leisure area of garden to unacceptable level, branch overhanging 31 Mill Lane, seeds and leaves are poisonous for owners dogs (4) and this will reduce risk while increasing light to No.31.
