A - Laburnum - This tree is planted close to the house (c 2 m) and overshadows the kitchen and dining room windows significantly. We are also concerned about the poisonous seeds and the many seedlings that it produces as we have a young grandchild and our neighbours also have young children. We had previously been given permission to prune this but have now decided that it is inappropriate in this location. B - Leylandii hedging belonging to 4 The Paddock, CB6 1TP. We propose to cut this outgrown hedge back to our property boundary. It overshadows our garden by about 3 m and greatly restrict what we can grow in its shade.

T1 Pittosporum - Crown lift to 2.5mtrs and reduce back from the dwelling. Shrub has become a large specimen and due to its proximity to the house and window it considerably reduces the light into the room. T2 Cotoneaster - Reduced by approximately 50% of its current dimensions and reshape. Shrub has become a large specimen, too large for its environment. This work is necessary to improve the appearance and its size and shape going forward.
