Proposal

T001: Beech - lateral reduction on northern side of 3m, reduce loading on the decaying base. T002: Beech - truncate northern stem to approx. 2m in length to significantly reduce mechanical forces on decaying stem, reduce risk to neighbouring property to north, Ganoderma and significant decay present see resistograph results. T003: Sweet Chestnut – fell, limited structural wood remaining, close proximity to residential properties, replant with x1 10-12cm Sweet Chestnut in area recently cleared of laurel. T004: Elm – fell, dead, replace with x1 10-12cm Beech to be planted in area recently cleared of laurel. T005: Ash – fell, ADB 75% defoliated, replace with x1 10-12cm Hornbeam, to be planted in suitable canopy gap. A001: Sycamore – fell, weighted, leaning toward residential property, with no option to prune to provide sufficient gap. G002: Various species (mainly sycamore/goat willow) - laterally prune by up to 3m along property boundaries to provide sufficient gap of min 2m to dwellings.
