Full Proposal
T1, Oak - To shorten house side only lateral branches by circa 2.5m back to a point roughly in line with pre-pruned lower laterals. To shorten re-grown lower laterals back to last pruning points. Current canopy spread/radius on house side is circa 8m. Reasons, lower lateral branches on the house side have previously been shortened to separate from house by circa 2m, however upper lateral branches were not shortened and remain overhanging the house roof by Circa 2m. The tree is in close proximity to 106 Alpine Road, and the overhanging canopy is now overly dominant, both in relation to the house and reasonable enjoyment of the small rear garden.
