T52 Beech. Prune: Reduce o/ex branch E canopy by not more than 3.5m/not less than 6m measured out from stem BTSPP. Reason: Management. This 9.5m long branch is over-extended. The modest reduction of this single branch to not less than 6m will have little, if any, appreciable adverse effect on either tree health or amenity, but will make a difference to windloading and its rotational effect on the stem. T104 Sycamore. Prune: 1. Remove 1st lateral branch ascending east back to the parent stem. Reason: Management. Removal of this single branch is necessary to clear overhead tele-cables and resolve problems with intermittent internet function. 2. Canopy reduction pruning to a height of not less than 7.5m and radial spread of not less than 3m in any one direction measured out from the stem back to suitable pruning points (BTSPP). Reason: Tree is a lapsed pollard in obvious decline and appears moribund. These works will create a smaller, compact canopy appropriate to limited available root system resources, to which it is anticipated the tree will respond favourably. As per the details and particulars contained in the supporting tree survey document Ref: SW/TMS/347/25
