Council sourceApplication for tree works in a conservation area Two sycamore trees require a light crown raise and canopy lift and thinning of the canopies that come together so the church western end is made more visable. Any deadwood should be removed. The upper canopy of both trees should not be reduced. Full crown/canopy reductions on three holly trees to encourage columnar growth.
