Silver birch tree (301/T4) - To reduce the crown by no more than 4m in height and no more than 2.5m at the sides to the previous reduction points and reform the shape to the tree. To crown lift the tree over the road and drive by no more than 2m.Crown thin no more than 10% due to the nature of silver birch trees and central crossing branches should be removed to prevent damage to the branches. Any double branches should have the larger of the 2 pruned out to leave the newer smaller branch to take it's place. Ivy is to be cut out of the upper section of the crown to prevent it reaching the new reduction points and engulfing the crown and reduced around the main stem to approx. 150mm from the stem. The Ivy is deep set into the tree and therefore removing it completely may be detrimental to the tree and will reduce the biodiversity. Cut sizes to be no more than 75mm and all pruning cuts to be made by way of an arborist cut and pruned back to an established growth point or the stem if no growth point is available. Tree width is approx. 6.5m and tree height is approx. 13m. Once the tree has been reduced it will have a height of approx. 9m and width of approx. 4m. The work we have suggested will have a low impact on the trees health and will improve the long term amenity of the tree.
