    82 Melton Road, Barrow Upon Soar, Leicestershire, LE12 8NX

    To reduce the risk of further branch and limb failures within the crown of this tree, I would recommend that the Walnut (T1) has a crown reduction. The height of the tree should be reduced by 2m, the northern side of the crown by 2m, the eastern side of the crown by 3m, the southern side of the crown by 2m, and the Western side of the crown by 1.5m. Deadwood should also be removed from the crown whilst tree surgery operations are being carried out.
