Proposal
Mature oak tree 03EQ - 201/21/0359 - T9 - OAK has current dimensions: height 15m, crown spread 17m. We propose a 20% crown reduction to reduce branch length by 1.5-2m, reducing height down to 13m and reducing crown spread to 15m. We have recieved a Subtilis report that recommends a medium crown reduction regarding the affect this tree may be having on the soil up to and below no. 1 Nabbs Hill Close.
