Proposal

Lime (Tillia sp.) T10- Pollard at 15 meters above ground level, tree is currently 18 meters. Historic wounds at 3m with associated decay, exudate present. Recent removal of neighbouring tree may now lead to lime being more susceptible to wind damage. It is hoped that removal of the crown will reduce the risk of harm to pedestrians. Sycamore (Acer psuedoplatanus) T24- Removal of entire crown and leave a 10m monolith for habitat. Considerable decay at the base, recent high wind has caused branch failure in the crown. Sycamore (Acer psuedoplatanus) T18- Remove to ground. Supressed specimen leaning over historic graveyard with multiple abrasions on main stem. Sycamore (Acer psuedoplatanus) T31- 2 meter crown reduction. Tree is currently 18 metres in height. Cavity present in main stem at 3 meters above ground level. A small crown reduction to remove some of the sail effect whilst leaving enough photosynthetic material available for natural repair. Sycamore (Acer psuedoplatanus) T34- Remove five lowest branches on the south side of the tree in order to maintain clearance from the roof of the neighbouring property.
