Located within the woodland strip of no. 1 the towers sitting some what inline with no.20-19 towers lane, there is a reasonable amount of dead wood throughout the canopy that would benefit from a clean up T3- mature poplar tree located close to road edge of woodland strip somewhat inline with no. 20-19 towers lane.
