1 New Cottages Hunton Lane Sutton Scotney Hampshire SO21 3PX
Single sycamore tree - routine maintenance to remove excess branches and extend life (given rot on some part) including a 25% crown lift - by removing tertiary and secondary growth; to remove low level cross-growing branches to a height of c.3.5m and to remove some dead branches higher in the tree. (Amended) Single apple tree - routine maintenance to remove growth to maintain fruiting. I wish to remove c.50% of the volume of branches to create internal air and most watershoots following the last pruning 5 years ago.
