    T1 - Platanus x acerfolia - Fell due to 1. close proximity to neighbouring plane tree which is suppressing the growth of this tree, removal will give the neighbouring tree more room to develop. 2. Need to diversify slowly the species diversity across the site and allow for successional planting - this site is dominated by planes of a similar age.
