Description

T1 Beech tree: The proposed works consist of a crown reduction as advised by a tree surgeon, comprising: A lateral reduction of approximately 2 to 3 metres from the existing canopy edge on all sides. Following completion of the works, the anticipated canopy spread will measure approximately North: 7 metres, East: 7 metres, South: 7 metres, West: 7 metres. The tree is currently approximately 12.5m in height. We propose to reduce the tree to approximately 8.5m by cutting back to appropriate secondary growth points, ensuring all cuts are made to natural branch junction in line with good arboricultural practice. Measured horizontally from the base of the tree to the outer edge of the canopy. All measurements are approximate.
