Proposal

T1 - LIME - fell - The tree has been managed as a small pollard for many years but is becoming to big for the small area it is in. T2 - WILLOW - pollard - one side of the tree recently failed, clean up the tear cut on the failed side and bring the rest of the tree down to a low pollard to mimic the failed side. T3 - WILLOW - reduce top by 4-5m and 1-2m of the laterals. I believe reducing this tree will reduce the chance of it failing as the tree is quite exposed.
