Heavy reduction of a Willow Tree to approximately 3 metre stem. (Tree Conservation Area)

Proposed Arboricultural Works to copper beech tree at the rear of the property 1. Crown Reduction - Reduce overall crown height by 2-3 metres, reducing canopy spread proportionally. All cuts to be made back to suitable secondary branch growth points; natural tree form retained. No topping or stub cuts. 2. Crown Thinning - Selective removal of up to 25% of branch density throughout the canopy to improve light penetration, air circulation, and reduce wind-sail effect. Even distribution retained 3. Crown Lifting - Raise the lower canopy to provide a clear vertical clearance of 4 metres above ground level. Removal of low-hanging branches only; main crown structure fully retained. Rational - Retains the tree's mature character, health, and high amenity value within the Conservation Area - Reductions are moderate and sympathetic - proportionate to the tree's size and long-term vitality - Targeted pruning to improve structural integrity, reduce weight, and manage light access to the property and garden below

Proposed new windows to north-west and south-east elevations
