Apple Tree - branches?

blackspots

Warren Scout
Hello all, my MIL has two apple trees in her garden, and after seeing on here that people give apple tree twigs and leaves to their buns thought I might ask if I can chop back her trees. Does it matter which sort of apple tree it is, does it matter if I give the buns thin twigs or thicker branches?
 
Any apple tree branches are great. We let ours strip the leaves and bark then use the inner bits for kindling for the fire.
 
As long as the trees have not been sprayed/treated with any chemicals. I would also avoid the branches that have lichen on them. Otherwise any species is fine and any size branch/twig and all leaves :D
