Beech tree standing besides the glasshouse corner: Height is 9m -to be reduced to 7m. Spread is 6m -to be reduced to 4m . Reasons: Significant squirrel damage on the main stem, a reduction of end weight will support it's integrity. Glass house beneath is currently heavily dominated with leaf drop and shade.T2.
