Application overview
Client has a mature sycamore in the rear garden bordering number 29/31, which they wish to be reduced in size.I have inspected the sycamore and the lateral limbs are getting long with substantial weight building up on them. i have suggested a two to three meter full crown reduction to reduce the strain on the laterals and match with the height.The sycamore has had a high crown raise previously so removing anymore lower growth would create a top heavy canopy i would advise against this as an alternative.Sycamore is healthy with a well grown canopy suggested against removal.requesting permission for 2-3 meter (varying between limbs) full crown reduction.
