Description

T1 Horse Chestnut. A tree with serious health issues: Huge lesions and exposed inner wood, on the trunk at ground level to 2m in height, plus similar problems in the middle and upper crown. A significant gap in the canopy is apparent - where a large limb broke off several years ago. The tree overhangs several gardens, where the residents have expressed concerns about the tree's safety. A cursory inspection of the lower trunk revealed decay of the exposed timber. Proposed works: Reduce height by 2m. Reduce right side (when viewed from the garden of no 22) by 3m. Crown thin by 25% The object being - to reduce weight and wind resistance and extend the life of the tree, reducing the risk of a serious breakage. T2. Holly. The tree has been ailing since the neighbours created a driveway several years ago, lowering the ground level and causing significant root damage. Consequently, the tree is as good as dead - just a handful of leaves remain. Proposed works: Fell
