TPO 655 T1 (Oak) requires a 30% reduction to suitable lateral growth points. This is a large tree in close proximity to the house. This would be standard maintenance works to contain the tree size and shape for its location. T2 & T3 (Sweet Chestnut) trees forming a communal canopy require the same works for the same reasons.
