- Jul 2023Tree WorksTreesOutcome in report
Tree Officer Amended agreed alternative proposed work T3 a balanced 7m crown reduction of the whole canopy. T1 and T2 - both trees, a balanced 3m crown reduction retaining their uniformity of one canopy. Removal of all deadwood within the canopies of all three trees T1,T2,T3. All three of these very large trees exhibit prolific Innontus hispidus fungal brackets and woodpecker holes. The fungus is on-set and cracking and peeling of the bark from he base of the trees and higher up in the crowns is becoming more prevalent. The recent failure of a large limb clearly demonstrates and exhibits that the fungus has consumed a larger proportion of the holding wood inside these trees, thus reducing their structural integrity.
