Address:
The Rest Shire Lane Chorleywood Rickmansworth Hertfordshire
Description:
We are proposing a general crown reduction to tree TPO723. Up to 30%. The reason is it is overgrown and blocking huge amounts of daylight/sunlight from our garden - and it is overhanging the main road. Crown Reduction to the Sycamore tree (TOO which will be 3m, from approximately 15m down to 12m) We are also proposing to cut back/reduce branches where they are overhanging our property boundary, adjacent to the electrical substation at the end of our garden. This is a willow tree. The amount of reduction is minimal, 2 or 3 main branches overhanging. We have had a tree surgeon give us advice that the above are practical and reasonable.
