T1 Sycamore Tree: Crown reduction by 3m on all aspects to tidy and contain shape and remove any dead diseased or crossing branches to make safe. - to maintain current dimenssions and maximise light to understory. T2 Lime (Front Garden): Re-Pollard Back to previous points of reduction approx. 5m to tidy and contain shape. - routine maintenance The objectives of the works are to: • reduce the likelihood of direct physical conflict between the expanding root system and surrounding hard surfaces and structures • maintain the crown within a scale that is appropriate for the restricted setting • reduce excessive end weight and sail area, thereby helping to mitigate the risk of branch failure during periods of high winds and storm conditions • improve light levels to the property and immediate frontage • reduce the nuisance associated with the substantial sticky honeydew and leaf fall generated by a large Lime canopy in such close proximity to the property and pedestrian areas
