View council mapEuropean Beech (T1) - Reduce length of lateral branches to West of tree's crown (highlighted in red) to nearest viable growth point (see img. T1_2). We are requesting this work for the following reasons: 1. the branch has been subject to historic fire damage; 2. The work carried out last year should have included this, but it was missed, and therefore an additional application has been deemed necessary.
