    (2/TPO/00109) T1 - Oak: to reduce the overextended limbs in the lower canopy in line with the rest of the tree. the height will remain unchanged, only the sides will be reduced. Some branches are severely overextended by almost 4 metres. The overall width of the tree will be reduced in certain areas by approximately 6-8 metres. Clearing services and crown lifting over the road also. T2 - Ash: to fell to ground level, the stump will be cut as close to ground level as possible. Due to the proximity of both the trees to each other has meant that both are now compromised and the homeowner would rather allow the oak to flourish and fill out in its central crown than have two misshapen trees.
