This mature Ash tree stands on the border between my house and my next door neighbour (5 High Street) in my front yard. It has become very large and branches now extend some 8ft over my property causing excessive shading. I wish to have its height reduced (by 3m and lateral spread by 2m) and the branches over hanging my property removed. I have the permission of the owner to do this.
