Council source• T1 (cypress): Dismantle Cypress in front garden to just above ground level • T2 (Norway maple): Dismantle Norway maple in front garden to just above ground level • T3 (ash): Remove majority of crown on ash tree to facilitate the formation of pollard knuckles (see photo) • T4 (purple plum): Reshape purple plum in rear garden (see photo) We would like to replant 1 tree in place of the cypress + Norway maple, which were planted too close to each other (and to the adjacent pine), thus giving the newly planted tree a better chance to thrive. Notice: T5 (hawthorn): Dismantle dead hawthorn in front garden to just above ground level
