Works to a tree in a conservation area:T1 - Large Robinia tree. Tree is unstable and has had a limb fall to the floor on the ground on the 30th of August 2023. Remaining tree is unstable, although could be removed to 1m and allow to regenerate. As there is a mature Sycamore directly behind this tree, I recommend for the tree to be removed to ground level and poison stump to prevent any regrowth.
