    The Poplars Park Road Colton Leeds LS15 9AJ

    T1 Poplar - Pollard back to previous points, ensuring all cuts leave sound wood with no rot. T2 Poplar - Same treatment as T1: re-pollard to historic points, removing any decayed material. T3 and T4 Conifer - Remove entirely. Replanting and Site Considerations - Two Silver Birch saplings and one Willow have already been planted.

    T1 over mature Oak - This is an over mature tree with Veteran features including a large canopy at 3m in the main trunk., There is significant defects in some of the major branches. Possibly around 300 yrs old. It has a history of limb drop and has recently had one of the topmost branches break off and take a low larger limb with it. landing across two gardens and damaging a fence. I am applying for the minimum which is to climb and carry out pruning cuts where the limbs have torn to reduce the surface area of the wounds. There is also a large limb to the East which is now very exposed and also damaged from where the dropped limb has detached. Given the age and history of the tree I would like to reduce that limb so it is inline with the rest of the remaining canopy on the eastern side which would a 1.5m reduction. I would also like to reduce the remaining aspects of the tree by 0.75m to reduce the sail and strain on the tree which is clearly in decline.
