T1- Lime - Crown lift to 8m. Remove epicormic growth - to allow light into garden and windows from under the crown, remove branches touching or close enough to building to permit engross from rodents. T2 - Cupressus tip reduce to give 0.5m clearance from corner of building. G3 x 2 Hawthorn reduce height to 0.5 - 1m below cables to prevent friction with cables. The trees are in decline and small reduction will remove deadwood and may help with regeneration. T4- False acacia - Crown reduce by 4m as the leading stem grows at 45 degrees and there is significant decay in stem just below the point of lean. The road beside the tree adds to potential of injury and/ or damage if the tree were to fail. Reducing the tree would remove weight loading at the weakened point in the central stem.
