View council mapT1 - Goat Willow - pollard to 2m below the previous pollard points. Due to weight reduction as the is tree leaning towards the grave yard and structural roots on the opposite side affected by the nearby wall. T2 - Sweet Chestnut - Pollard (roughly 8m reduction) - Heavy weight reduction needed as the tree keeps dropping branches, there is a wound running the entire length of the stem possibly due to lightening. T3- Poplar - leader toward grave yard reduced by half (10 - 12m reduction) - large leader is more horizontal than vertical and leaning over the grave yard, reducing it by half to a growth point will reduce the risk of snap out. T4 - Yew - bottom half of the tree trimmed back by 2m and faded into the top half, for routine maintenance.
