See attached photos.2) reduce the crown and therefore moisture uptake from the area of the listed building's shallow foundations as recommended in the Technical Section of the attached Structural Engineer's report. The reasons for the work are self evident:-To protect the Grade II listed building's foundations from future subsidence,-To prevent branches overhanging the property,-To protect homeowners and members of the public using the village green from injury in the event that weakened limbs break off in high winds.
