T1 and T2 Ash, Trees are located in rear garden of No.15 Morris Close in close proximity to the boundary with No.278A Newbold Rd, trees have extended canopies to the S.W. I propose to prune back these over extended branches by 6m on T1, (current c.s. 10m) and 3.5m on T2, (current c.s. 7m) to alleviate chances of breaking-out and to increase light levels to the garden of 278a and neighbouring property.
