Description

single limb growing from the lower part of the canopy of an English Oak (Quercus robur) which is located in the garden of number 56 Riefield rd. Labelled 'tree 1' The limb overhangs the adjacent garden of number 58. The limb has previously been reduced to a lateral growth point, with the pruning wound showing minimal signs of occlusion. The remaining growth protrudes from beneath the canopy, suggesting phototropism. This means that a sizeable amount of load is being applied to a potential point of failure. The proposed works are limited to the reduction of this limb by no more than three metres in order to reduce the weight and loading, by bringing it back in line with the general spread of the canopy. All cuts would be to suitable growth points in accordance with BS3998.
