    Tree WorksTrees
    In report

    T1. Sycamore. Tree appears to have been drilled in multiple location at the base of tree and possibly poisoned. The ground surrounding the tree is overgrown but the immediate area around the base of the tree all vegetation has died which leads me to think something has been poured around the base. There is no sign of life in the upper crown of the tree even though an adjacent Sycamore was still full leaf at time of survey.
