    Outcome in report

    T1 - Veteran Oak - This is a beautiful tree and a real asset for the local community. It is the main feature of the garden and its surroundings, but a middle ground needs to be reached between what is best for the tree and the owner. The spread of the crown is becoming to large for the garden and property in which it is situated. The tree is in good health but has had a very large limb tear out (still suspended in canopy). Mrs Colvin is very concerned it will happen else where on the tree and damage her property or hurt someone. I propose a sympathetic 2.5 crown reduction to suitable growth points and a 15% thin and deadwood. This will improve light, alleviate sail and weight. Hopefully this will put Mrs Colvins mind at ease.
