- Feb 2020Tree WorksTreesIn report
T2. Beech. Remove lowest primary branch over property at c.10-12 above ground level. One wound to remain c.250mm in diameter. Second primary emerging from 6m agl- prune back secondary over house leaving wound c.150mm in diameter. Minor pruning of secondary branches may be required to balance canopy in the region of 1-1.5m. The works are specified as the tree is in very close proximity of the property. The beech overhangs a significant portion of the property and there is conflict with the existing relationship. It is recognised that the wound to be created is large however the pruning looks to improve the long term relationship between tree and property. The tree has good vitality to accommodate the pruning. In summary, although the branch to be removed is large in diameter the benefits of its removal (improving the relationship with the occupants of the dwellings and the property of itself ) far outweigh the negatives.
