  T5-T18 Lapsed Beech Hedge - reduce trees back to hedge height at approx 2.5m because of structural flaws which limit their long-term viability. There are numerous structural issues as the trees are a lapsed hedge, heavy decline of one large tree suggesting root disease, various cavities at or around the roots and lower trunks the trees heavily overshadow Oldbury House. Pruning the trees will not address the light issue for the adjacent house as the trees will still be very dominant and regrowth will block even more light- standing in group G1 of Tree Preservation Order
