What the council wrote
Mature common holly (Ilex aquifolium), approximately 9m in height located in the rear garden. - Reduce the height from approximately 9m to 5m, together with a reduction of the lateral crown spread. Reduce branches by up to 4m where necessary, whilst retaining the principal structural framework and a balanced crown. Additionally, crown lift by removing and/or reducing low branches to increase clearance beneath the canopy. Remove dead, damaged, crossing and rubbing branches where appropriate.
