2 The Tythings, Howe Green, Chelmsford, CM2 7TU

Field Maple (T1) and Hawthorn (T2), growing together to form one canopy - rear garden. Proposed works - Reduce vertical height of T1 Field Maple by up to 1.5 meters, cutting to suitable, well established growth points; Reduce remaining lateral branch work in accordance with newly established top height, up to 1.0 meter where applicable, leaving the tree(s) in a natural, fastigiate profile; Crown clean of all major and minor deadwood, rubbing/crossing branches and hazardous limbs. I.e, Limbs that may be damaged through adverse weather and/or weak, that contain areas of decay or are dying back etc. To include T2 Hawthorn as part of the reduction in lateral branch work of T1, where the 2 trees have grown as one, reducing the canopy in line with T1, up to 1.0 meter. Reasoning - To reduce overall scale of trees, primarily T1, where this is encroaching over the neighbouring buildings, and main property building of number 2. Client has young children so concerned with the size of the tree and small branches falling in high wind which have occurred in previous times.
