Approximately 10% crown thinning throughout to reduce sail area and wind loading, whilst retaining the tree's overall natural form and structural integrity. Crown lift to approximately 3.5m over the driveway to provide adequate clearance.The proposed works are intended to reduce mechanical loading and improve clearance whilst retaining the tree's overall amenity value and natural appearance.T2 - Sycamore - Approx. 15m HeightTwin-stemmed Sycamore with the stems dividing at approximately 0.5m above ground level. The union is included, with one of the stems extending at an extremely acute angle and overhanging neighbouring gardens.Proposed works: Reduce the overextended stem by approximately 2.5-3m to reduce its weight and end loading, thereby reducing mechanical stress on the included union and the likelihood of limb/stem failure. The reduction will be confined to the affected stem, retaining the remainder of the tree's crown and maintaining its overall form and amenity value.
