Proposal to reduce the crown of T1 Oak by 30% and thin it to reduce the risk of falling branches, which pose a danger to children playing in the garden. Recent large branch breakages have occurred. Broken branches caught within the crown will be removed. For T2 Oak, the proposal is to reduce the crown by 25% and thin it to allow light and reduce the risk of damage to an outbuilding caused by falling dead branches. It appears both trees are not in the area marked for TPO, but the application is made as a precaution.
