Works to trees subject to Tree Preservation Orders EDC TPO63-T1 TPO63-T1 - Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus) - Crown lift to a height of approximately 4m, primarily removing small epicormic growth from the main stem and lower canopy. These works will be carried out using a pruning saw and bypass secateurs, no chainsaw work is necessary as all pruning is minor. Reasons - Historically this tree has been crown lifted by removing major lower limbs and has been crown reduced. This is the primary cause of the epicormic growth. The owner would like to continue with cyclical crown lifting and the removal of epicormics is considered good arboricultural practice.
