T2 - Beech (Fagus sylvatica) growing in the rear garden on the boundary fence line. It is semi-mature and multi stemmed. Base, trunk and junctures look sound with no signs of fungus or root incursions. Recommend an internal thinning of the crown by 10% to lessen wind resistance. At the same time, climber can check for weaknesses and look at the possible insertion of a cobra brace in the future. (Amended)
