  Please see attached location plan of the tree, denoted here by T288. The tree has had a recent significant limb failure and presents as having several poor unions. Please see photos of the fallen limb. The tree also has a significant cavity shown in the pictures attached. The tree is in close proximity to an adjacent building and the owner is naturally concerned. The proposed works are to see a heavy reduction of 6-7 metres off the sides and top, retaining as much internal growth as possible.
