Council planning record

H1 - mixed hedge along north/northeast boundary of cemetery, prune along whole length. The pruned height will be 2m and we need to prune back new growth by about 1m along the length of the hedge. H2 - mixed hedge along south boundary of cemetery, prune back to previous pruning points along whole length. T1 - Oak (13 on plan) - crown clean, crown lift 2m over path. T2 - Mountain Ash (14 on plan) - prune branches back from path. T3 - Oak (29 on plan) - crown clean, prune back from path. T4 - Oak (37 on plan) - crown lift to give 2.5m ground clearance, crown clean. T5 - various trees in line A to B on plan - crown lift to 2.5m ground clearance. T6 - Conifers - (44 on plan) - prune back to keep shape, reduce height to 4m maximum, which will be a reduction of around 4m of newer growth. T7 - Yew - (6 on plan) - reduce away from utility pole to give 1m clearance. T8 - Whitebeam (11 on plan) - formative prune. No dimensions given by the tree surveyor but our estimate is reduce height by 2m and prune to keep shape by removing maximum 1.5m newer growth. Other trees in cemetery where crown lift is required to give pedestrian access underneath i.e. trees numbered 28, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42 43, remove overhanging branches to give 2m-2.5m ground clearance.
