Application overview
Large Acer tree in central garden of Ormond Avenue - marked in attached sketch plan and located on the boundary between Vigo House and neighboring Halcyon. After consultation with professional arborist - it is proposed to prune the tree in order to maintain the balance of the crown by reducing it by 20% and back to previous pruning points. The Acer is 7 metres tall, and 6 metres wide and we wish to remove 1 metre from top growth - leaving the tree 6 metres tall after pruning. We would also like to reduce the lateral growth by 1 metre leaving the crown 5 metres wide.
