T1 - Norway Spruce (Picea abies) - Fell to ground level. Medium sized specimen rooted against boundary wall at the front of the property. Immediately adjacent to the car-port entrance. The tree leans significantly towards Newbridge Hill and the junction with Old Newbridge Hill. The crown of the tree obscures the immediately adjacent street light. The species is unsuitable for its position and for reduction. T2 - Prunus (Cherry/ Plum) Variety - Multi-stemmed and suckering specimen in rear garden. Thin out stems by 25% to decrease bushy form. Remove deadwood. Reduce overall height by 20% (1m approx) and shape to a balanced form.
