    T2, Oak : Suggested works: Reduce southern canopy by 3 metres with a maximum diameter of cuts (MDC) of 75mm. Reduce northern canopy by 2 metres, MDC 50mm. Rationale: To limit forces exerted on decayed lower stem (see photos provided) and hopefully preserve the tree for a longer time to come. T5, Hawthorn : Suggested works: Fell to near ground level Rationale: Tree is heavily leaning with poor crown density and limited amenity value. Past partial structural failure. See photos. T7, Oak : Suggested works: Reduce decayed lowest extending secondary easterly limb by 4 metres, MDC 100mm. Rationale: Branch exhibits decay and should be removed for safety (see photos).
