  T1 - Oak tree in rear garden. Work required: 30% Crown Thinning and 30% Crown Reduction. Crown Reduction by 2 meters. Work is now required to bring the tree back to shape. The height of the tree will remain untouched, however the spread of the tree to return back to 7 meters after pruning. The tree was last pruned June 2017 under application number 16/1360/TPO. The tree is T349 Married Quarters, Carpenders Park No 1 97. Since last pruned, the crown all round the tree has grown in volume restricting light coming through and the branches have spread into our neighbours garden at both 63 and 65 Highfield. Work would be required to reduce the outer parts of the crown to give it a balanced shape and size, and thinning to reduce the amount of dense foliage.
