    T1- Sycamore Tree to reduce by a third. Taking about 10/15ft off top and approx 8 inch diameter cuts. Reducing all side branches around the whole tree cutting no more than 4/5 inch approx diameter of cuts max. The stem which goes off to the right take down to the ground. (will see stem in picture marked in red) We want to do this to make it safer for all neighbours around as Tree is getting to big for the area. It will still look like a nice Tree just smaller.
