Proposed Tree Works: Tree Species: 2 x Self-seeded Sycamore Trees Work Required: Felling The two self-seeded sycamore trees have established themselves within a mature group of horse chestnut trees. Both sycamores are heavily overgrown with ivy and are located beneath the canopy of a healthy, well-established horse chestnut. Following consultation with a horticulturist, it has been advised that the area is overly congested, which is negatively impacting the health and growth potential of the horse chestnuts. To support the long-term vitality of the horse chestnut trees, which are a priority for retention, the proposed plan is to fell both sycamores. Due to the existing mature planting and the sheltered location beneath a healthy canopy, replanting is considered unnecessary at this time.
