Tree Preservation Order EL:12/06 - T1 - Oak tree in back garden. Tree has a height of approximately 18 metres and spread of approximately 19 metres. Proposed works are to reduce lower section of crown with branches extending further than overall crown towards house by approximately 2-2.5 metres. Height of tree will not be affected by these works and spread will be reduced in lower crown only, bringing back into existing crown line. These works are being carried out to give clearance from property and reduce end weight of over-extended limbs.
