Five Day Notice for work to be carried out on a Lime tree at 72 Clarence Road, Wood Green, N22 8PW. The tree is an old pollard and has extensive decay to the main stem, at approximately 3m. The decay pocket is at least 50cm deep, we reduced the height by approximately 2m last year, however there is still 3-4m of stem above the decay pocket, which on inspection this year has worsened. There is a risk of failure of the tree at the decay pocket, so we are proposing to reduce the height by a further 2m into the main fork in order to remove some weight and try and preserve the tree for as long as possible.
