(T1) Sycamore Pollard to previous historic points by approx 50% and reshape. Remove the lowest stem back to the main trunk (see photo). Height from 12.0m to 4.0m Crown spread from 7.0m to 3.0m Tree is walled in, too large for environment. The tree has a decaying cavity at its base, making it unstable - this is particularly the reason for limb removal.
