1 Gaston Bell Close Richmond TW9 2DR
Mature Horse Chestnut Tree (T1) with a height of approx 15m and a stem diameter of 101cm. It has a radial canopy spread of approx 8m. It is then stemmed at 3m with a balanced crown and has been reduced within the last c.2 years. Crown Consultants recommend removing the tree or reducing it to c.4m tall stump. The latter being my preference. CC recommend this work takes place as a matter of high priority (within the next 3 months).
