Description

Sweet chestnut (252-E): I wish to carry out a 5-10% crown thin. specifically targeting inner epicormic growth, rubbing branches and unnecessary growth. This is to help to try and prevent any issues with the long term health and stability of the tree. I feel this will help remove some weight and wind sail from the canopy, as the tree is growing very lateral. The proposed work wont effect the shape or amenity of the tree.
