T1 Sycamore tree (F5N.05) located South West of the 5th tee requires a crown reduction of the East leader to 10 metres above ground level (above the bracing) to reduce the weight of the tree leaning toward the 5th tee due to the decline in the health of the tree around the stem. Photo 1 shows a red line in the tree which requires pruning to above the bracing. Photo 3 shows the tree on the West side which has black canker staining on the bark between the buttress of the stem. Photo 4, from the South side, shows the tight union and bark damage with reactionary growth between the bifurcation. Photo 5 displays the tight union of the leaders with mature fungus bracket growth.
