T3 - 1 x Sycamore near the front driveway exit - Remove significant deadwood and reduce the over extended lateral branches by approximately 2 metres to reduce the risk of failure over this area. T4 - 1 x Yew near the front driveway exit - Dismantle the upper crown leaving a pollarded stem to encourage lower level regeneration. This tree is in sever decline.
