Council sourceUndertake the following work to Sycamore T1 of Tree Preservation Order number DFTPO 265: Reduce lower lateral branches on western side of tree to a height of approximately 5-5.5 metres to allow adequate clearance for passing of agricultural vehicles and goods deliveries. Pruning cuts will be made to points of live growth as near as possible to the red line as indicated on page 1 of the accompanying photographs (revised tree plan photos 1.2). Partially reduce lower lateral branches on northern side of tree to give clearance of approximately 1.5 metres from adjacent building as indicated on pages 2 and 3 of the accompanying photographs (revised tree plan photos 1.2). All cuts will be made back to live growth including the very low branch on the right as marked on page 2 of the accompanying photographs. All proposed work is based on the recommendations in the accompanying Arboricultural Report (Independent Arboriculture & Urban Forestry Ltd., 16th June 2023), and will be carried out by a qualified tree surgeon in accordance with BS3998:2010. (Revised description).
