Council sourceT1 Sycamore - Large Tree, becomes triple stemmed from 4M with tight partially included unions creating a potential weakness - reduce canopy in height by approximatel 5m to and shorten long lateral by 3-4m to minimise risk of failure in high winds and inclement conditions. T2 Horse Chestnut - Tall tree with an exposed upper canopy prone to wind damage - reduce upper canopy by 5-6m to form a more balanced and uniform crown. T3 Sycamore - Long laterals protruding from the main canopy extending over the garage roof - shorten laterals by 2-3m back to suitable side branches to bring in line with main canopy to reduce exposure to external forces. T4 Lime - Dense canopy due to prolific epicormic growth causing shading issues beneath the canopy - thin corwn by 20-30% by removal of epicormic growth
