T1 Yew - Reduce lateral branches on the east side back to suitable secondary branches by no more than 3m to ensure the tree canopy is in line with the boundary hedge. All pruning cuts will be made at branch junctions, leaving sufficient live growth to maintain crown form. The branches are oppressive to the occupants of the adjacent property and shade the garden below. The work is 'de-minimus' and will ensure future compatibility with the site and surroundings.
