Description

T1. Ash tree. very tall situated in the end of the rear garden. Black fungi attacking at the base. Very long line approx. 6m lenth base towards upper body possibility of one main stem splitting and dropping/hitting the estate building in the rear. The crown of the stem in question is covered in ivy and very heavy at the top. Please see pics. We recommend working on that one particular limb only as that is the weakest point. The rest of the tree can be as is no need to reduce etc. Safely reducing the height of the main stem in question by structurally pollarding down it down by approx 8m. reduce the ivy another 2m lower to allow the pollarded main stem to open up back into growth. It will just mean all the spready weight has been taken off it making it lighter and very little if any wind movement or resistence to expand the life of the stem with safety as the main focus and priority. Please note. to inspect the base of the tree and follow the line going upwards. Its a weak point and when time comes the entire stem will split of the main tree
