- Feb 2021Tree WorksTreesPermit
1x early/mature Lime (L1) - 2m crown reduction on Western/housefacing stem and 1m side prune. No work to remaining canopy. Reasons for work: upon the site visit on 02/12/20 it was noted that the tree in question, whose trunk bifurcates at approx 5m, leaving a co-dominated stemmed canopy with equal percentage of canopy spread over the two limbs. The main fork at 5m is the area of concern as there appears to be signs of included bark and trunkation. Works designed to reduce co-dominance of house facing stem to lessen the likelihood of future failure.
