View council mapT1- Horse Chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum) This Horse Chestnut is in an advanced state of decline, with significant deadwood throughout the crown and clear evidence of internal decay. The structural integrity of the tree has been severely compromised, increasing the likelihood of branch or whole-tree failure. Proposed Works - The tree will be removed through controlled sectional dismantling. A MEWP will be used where appropriate to ensure safe access and minimise operator exposure. Rigging techniques will be employed to lower branches safely and prevent damage to surrounding structures. All work will be undertaken by qualified arborists using industry-approved climbing and access methods. T2- British Black Pine (Pinus nigra) Proposed WorksSelective pruning will be carried out to remove deadwood, defective branches, and any limbs showing signs of weakness or excessive end-weight. Reduction cuts will be made back to suitable growth points to maintain the tree?s natural form while improving structural balance
