T1 - Holm oak. Remove tree and stump and plant replacementReason - the tree has a large cavity within the trunk located at the site of a previous large limb break-out. The trunk and one limb of the tree are colonised by a known decay forming fungus Ganoderma applanatum. The lower part of the trunk sounds as decayed and hollow when tapped with a mallet.
