Council sourceT1 - Beech - Reduce crown by approximately 4 metres (30%). We would like to carry out these works to maintain the size of the tree, so that the tree doesn't out grow the area it is situated in. By reducing the tree now we would avoid the need for a the heavier reduction, keeping pruning cuts to a minimum diameter.
