Council source1 x mature willow in front bed of property, within TPO 2004.The tree has been previously pollarded to a good standard circa 7 years previously. The client wishes to have the tree re-pollarded to the previous pruning cuts to maintain sustainable growth and health of the tree in future. It is currently quite tall for the small driveway area and wishes to reduce the possibility of snap outs/failures within the crown due to the added weight the branches pose. All work carried out to bs3998 standard to promote further healthy regeneration.
