T1 Magnolia - Crown reduce the overall height of the tree by approximately 1.0 metre, resulting in a final height of approximately 6.0 metres. Reduce the radial spread by approximately 1.0 metre at all compass points, leaving a final crown spread of approximately 6.0 metres in diameter.Works to be undertaken to retain the trees natural shape and main structural framework, preserving a high proportion of the existing foliage-bearing structure.All pruning cuts are to be carried out at suitable secondary or lateral growth points in accordance with BS 3998:2010 ? Tree Work Recommendations, and pruning wounds shall not exceed 40mm in diameter.Additionally, carry out a 10% crown thin to remove selected internal twig growth and reduce crown density, with particular attention to removing any epicormic growth throughout the crown. Cut material is to be removed evenly throughout the canopy, avoiding over-thinning in any one area.Avoid cutting branches back to the main stem unless necessary due to structural defects or health and safety concerns. An even distribution of foliage and well-balanced branch structure shall be retained throughout.The proposed crown reduction and thinning works are necessary to manage the overall size and spread of the tree in relation to its setting. The tree is obscuring windows & therefore light levels, and the reduction will help alleviate excessive shading and encroachment on nearby structures and garden areas, while maintaining the trees natural form and amenity value.The 10% crown thin and removal of epicormic growth will improve light penetration and airflow through the canopy, thereby enhancing the trees physiological health and reducing susceptibility to storm damage. All works are intended as formative maintenance to preserve the long-term structural integrity and visual appeal of the tree.G1 Holm Oaks and Yew - Crown lift by selective removal of secondary and sub-lateral branches only, to achieve a vertical clearance of a
