Description

TPO 602: T1 – Common Beech - Fell in sections to near ground level. The base of the tree is completely hollow, and approximately 30% of the remaining sapwood is extensively decayed, resulting in a severe loss of structural integrity. The tree has a significant lean to the northeast, directly toward the garage/dwelling, posing a high risk to property and the safety of the client. T2 – English Oak - Fell in sections to near ground level. This tree is situated atop a bank and exhibits a pronounced lean to NW towards the garage/dwelling. A large structural defect is visible along the main stem, extending approximately 4 metres up to the main union. The trunk sounds hollow when tested with a sounding mallet, and bark is peeling away from the rear of the main union, possible underlying decay. T3 – English Oak - Reduce the SE spread by approximately 7 metres by removing one limb (maximum diameter cut: 250mm) to alleviate end-weight and reduce loading on the remaining structure. This tree is growing with a pronounced eastern lean from the top of a bank, overhanging the garage/dwelling. T4 – Hawthorn - Fell to near ground level. The tree is interfering with a utility pole and overhead wire. Reason for not replanting: The current locations of the trees proposed for removal are unsuitable for replanting. New trees have already been planted throughout the surrounding woodland, and further planting in this area may not be beneficial.
