Large Trees on land at rear of garden

Reported via desktop in the Tree Requires Pruning category anonymously at 18:02, Friday 16 May 2025

Sent to Bromley Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7580247.

Fully supportive of the trees and how good they are for the environment but these trees have grown so tall that we don't get much sun in our garden of an afternoon anymore. From around half past 4 the sun starts dipping behind the trees leaving our garden in darkness as you can see from the photo. Is there any chance these could be cut down a little please so that we can enjoy summer bbqs etc in the evenings after we finish work. It's too shaded and therefore chilly for us to enjoy our garden. There are also trees pushing against our fence that need trimming back.
