Proposal

T1 Yellow - Willow: Crown reduction by 6mt back to historic pollard points, tree height at 12mt to be reduced to 6mt, tree width at 12mt to be reduced to 6mt - tree historically pollard to this spec - poor crown structure has led to a number of defects to hung up snapped branches, longitude cracks in secondary stems and hazard beams - tree to be reduced to allow for crown regeneration to form a more uniformed structure to allow for retention and long term contribution.
