Tree has historically lost central stem and the sub-dominant stem has now taken over as the leader, but is growing at a 45 degree angle. Excessive loading on the main union, which has started to decay due to the dead remnant of the old leading stem. High target area. Scots pine (T14) - Sectionally dismantle down to ground level.
