View council mapContained within TPO Group: T2/42/W1.We would like to apply prune side branches from garden by no more than 2m off 1 x large Oak marked as a Triangle on the sketch map. Reason to clear branches and allow light into garden.Fell 1 large Ash Marked As A Square on sketch map. Reason the tree overhangs Number 43 but has very little foliage on a very long trunked tree. Pruning the large limb over number 43 in my opinion would leave the limb almost without branches as it is very sparse. Removing the limb completely would leave a large pruning cut on the trunk greater than 50% of its diameter . The tree is overextended due to phototropic growth and is completely enclosed by adjacent trees and as such would not be missed.
