Tree work noted on plan and aerial view of site in alphabetical order. The three leylandii lines to dismantle: a) At the fork in the drive, on the LH side. Plan is to replace with laurel hedge which will be lower (9m compared to 16m height of current leylandii) and admit much more light to the walled garden area. b) The line of leylandii bordering the farm (on the top field with the bonfire in it). There are some broadleaf trees in that line which we would like to preserve, a cherry, Oak, Beech, Hornbeam. c) The line of leylandii put up to mark the helipad on that top bonfire field. These are particularly problematic since they block a huge amount of light in that part of the garden and prevent the healthy growth of the varied trees and shrubs there. d) G1 Apple trees, carry out maintenance pruning, 1.5 metre reductions and 20%crown thin. e) 3 no yews at the foot of the motte (opposite kitchen window) need some lifting and pruning - they're looking straggly with bare branches on the underside. Crown lift 1.5 metres and deadwood. f) T4 Sycamore dismantle to the union, leaving the trunk as habitat, due to close proximity to the house and structurally compromised by repeated squirrel damage and split at the union. g) Small rotten Laurel fell. Weeping Aspen outside the walled garden, situated on the driveway side. Reduce crown height by 3m to 11m.
