  Tree T1 is a mature Common Beech (Fagus sylvatica) located within the rear garden of a residential property and subject to Tree Preservation Order protection. The tree is situated in close proximity to the dwelling, conservatory, boundary fencing and neighbouring properties. As a result of its mature size and extensive crown spread, the canopy now extends over adjacent structures and has become intertwined with a neighbouring oak tree. The proposed works consist of a crown reduction of approximately 25–30% to reduce overall crown dimensions and end-weight on extended limbs, whilst retaining the tree’s natural form and significant amenity value. The objectives of the proposed works are: • To provide appropriate clearance from nearby structures and garden features. • To reduce mechanical loading and leverage on extended scaffold limbs. • To minimise branch interaction and competition with the neighbouring oak canopy. • To maintain the tree at a suitable size for its location and reduce the need for more severe pruning in the future. • To retain the tree as a prominent landscape feature whilst undertaking proportionate management. The proposed reduction will be undertaken in accordance with BS3998:2010 Tree Work – Recommendations, pruning back to suitable growth points to maintain a balanced and natural crown form. No works are proposed to the main stem or principal structural framework beyond that necessary to achieve the specified reduction. The tree is considered to make a positive contribution to local amenity and the proposed works represent routine arboricultural management intended to ensure its long-term retention within the landscape.

  T1 - Sycamore T2 - Pine T3 - Sycamore T1 - Sycamore - Reduce awa from property b 1-2m to good pruning points. Shape and balance crown to give a more natural shape after pruning away from building. Remove deadwood crossing/rubbing branches. The tree is getting close to the building and requires pruning back before it is touching. T2 - Pine - Remove deadwood and inspect cobra brace. Reduce height by 1-2m to good pruning points. The tree is between the 2 Sycamore and is over shadowing them affecting their growth. T3 - Sycamore - Reduce crown height by 1m and reduce sides by 1m all round to good pruning points to give a smaller more compact crown, keeping the natural shape of the tree. The tree is larger than the other Sycamore and we would like to get them to a more even size. Remarks:
