Description

T1 - Common Oak tree - Reduce in height by approximately 2-3 metres. Maximum cut size of 4-5 inches.Shorten back laterals by approximately 2 metres. Max cut size of 2-3 inches.Reasons - as provided by Hywel Davies, Consultant and director at Exe Tree Care- The tree has been in decline over a 10 year period. Pruning work has been carried out in this time, predominantly removal of deadwood. As a result the crown has become open and 'leggy' and the remaining stems have been subject to larger wind forces, causing some minor storm damage.- It is reasonable to take weight from the crown at this stage, given that the tree is more likely to fail in future storms. Carrying out remedial work now may prevent significant storm damage. Tears and splits caused by storm damage are more likely to be invaded by pathogens than smaller pruning cuts
