Application overview
T1 Lime: Raise Canopy above garden to 5m, reduce overhanging branches spread by 2.5m from tips. Reason: Not been managed previously resulting in greater impact on the garden. The Raising will allow for the garden underneath the tree to be utilised for gardening. Managing the spread now aids the ability to garden under the canopy and establishes a control point so the tree can be controlled without overwhelming the garden and preventing full use.
