T1 Cedar - Dead Tree: Fell to ground level T2 Cedar - In decline: Fell to ground level T3 Beech large limb over the drive showing advanced signs of fibre buckling due to increased weight on the limb indicating possible future failure: The proposal is to reduce the limb by a 2.0m reduction and selected thinning to reduce the end weight therefore reducing the risk of future failure. T4 Sycamore - Previously reduced due to the advanced decay in several locations along the whole length of the main stem the crown has regenerated putting extra weight on the tree this could lead to the tree failing if the growth is not managed: The proposal is to reduce the regenerating growth back to the previous reduced points and allow the tree to regenerate.
