Tree Preservation Order

Description

Tree Preservation Order EL:05/03 - T1 Oak needs to be reduced as it overhanging 4 properties and needs pruning to keep tree within a managable size for its surroundings.. The tree is quite unbalanced so I recommend the tree be reduced as follows. 1.5m reduction to the Northern side. 2m reduction to the East and Western sides. 2.5m reduction to the South side. 2m from the height of the tree. The tree measures 18m across from East to west so this will leave the tree at 14m across the crown. The reduction from all sides and height will be back to healthy growth points
