Council sourceYew tree that the customer has had trimmed annually but it has now got to a size where it is not practical to trim it. It is causing excessive shading on both the customer and neighbours garden and the neighbour in particular is keen to have it reduced as it completely dominates her garden. I am requesting to reduce it to roughly where indicated on my diagram, with the pruning cuts coming back to suitable growth points with all work being carried out to BS3998:2010. The intention is to then leave it for two years to recover before starting to prune and shape the new growth and maintain it at its new more manageable size.
