Proposal
T176 - Prunus cerasifera:Reduce crown by specified extent - reducing the extended limbs to the southeast over the road and parking by approximately 2 m to reduce the overhang back to the carriageway side edge of the parking bay to clear the highway and reduce loading on the historically cracked basal fork. Also lift the canopy over the car parking bay to 3 m to provide sufficient clearance for vehicles. Final cuts to be made at suitable pruning points, leaving furnishing growth where possible.T177 - Platanus x hispanica:End weight reduction - reducing the two braced stems (to the north and to the west), and reducing the lateral limbs to the east and southeast, by 2-3 m, back to the most recent previous reduction points.
