T1 Oak: crown lift the canopy to 5.5 metres. Also to reduce the lateral limbs growing towards the building by 2 metres to give clearance, to appropriate pruning points. Also to reduce back any extended limbs back into the canopy. Reason being the tree has overgrown its location and needing maintenance.
