Removal of a spilt leader (T2)that is blocking out sunlight and causing shading to the garden and property. The spilt leader also over hangs onto the adjacent road, (Whitworth road) which I feel can present its self has serious hazard to road users should the spilt leader breakaway from the tree due to the excessive weight, that has occurred in the past at the property.Removal of approximately 15 metres of height from each of the Sycamore trees ( T1 T2 T3 T4)situated in the rear garden of the property, trees are identified from the rear of the property left to right. All works to be carried out by professional contractors.
