    T1. Copper beech: to crown lift the road overhanging branches by 7 metres, this will involve just removing small branch growth and not main branches. because of this highway request and to keep the canopy balanced looking; as the tree is so prominent, the crown lift is to be cut all round the lower canopy, keeping a level cut, again this will be without removing any large branches. To reduce the canopy width all round by 1.5 metres, from 14 metres to 11, this will aid the highway and the property, for which the tree is getting forever bigger To reduce the height from 21 metres to 19 metres
