Proposal

Five Day Notice LARGE MATURE WILLOW x 18ms high adjacent to boathouse and within well used recreational area / pathway - we attended to this tree on Friday, 4 July to remove a failed secondary branch, however, the main stem has a stress fracture extending approx 1m lengthways which was opening in the gusty conditions. The main stem supports a heavy tall crown and is in an unsafe condition. We are reducing crown by approximately 8 to 10ms to leave at 8ms above ground level to make safe in very high target area.
