Trees are 4 Lime Trees they are situated on the LHS in the wooded garden at the front facing the houseThere are 5 lime trees one fell onto our car during the last storm - we feel that they are a danger to anyone passing underneath them. We would like to pollard them to half their current height. They are numbered on the plan T1-4They are on the current TPO plan from 2002We would take them down to 12M height - Limes are excellent at regenerating and we will keep them to this height but allow them to grow the side shoots to replace the Crown loss
