Grounds of Brinsworth House (Front Boundary) T1: Beech tree – Fell to ground level, grind out stump Reason for Work Following the tree work carried out approximately three years ago, the tree has developed stag-heading and is displaying clear signs of root system decline. Given that the adjacent tree was previously removed due to infection by Ganoderma and Honey fungus, it is possible that these pathogens have affected the subject tree and contributed to its decline. Current height standing at 12m Reducing height down to 0m Spread of tree before 5m Spread of tree after reduction 0m
