  T1 English Oak Quercus robur T1 is growing within close proximity of the building Oakridge Retirement apartments opposite flat 14. T1 has been reduced approx. 6 years ago the re growth has started to become heavily weighted. re growth from pruning cuts has a weaker branch union than natural growth. This is more likely to fail and requires maintenance in order to keep the tree safe. There is a busy footpath and car park below the tree as well as being approx. 2m from the building. I would like to reduce this tree to previous points 30% making cuts on vertical growth of up to 15cm and horizontal growth of up to 10cm. this is shown on pic 1 with a red line.

  T1. English oak, Quercus robur. T1 is growing in the garden of Glenroy as shown on map. It has been in bad health for a number of years now shedding leaves early, and signs of crown thinning, despite a hard reduction a few years ago. This year has put out fruiting bodies for Meripilus Giganteus. these can be seen it pictures although they have turned black. there is also severe decay in the stem of the tree from ground level to about 2 metres. this cavity creating a weak point in the tree making it likely to fail. this can also be seen in pictures. I propose to dismantle T1 to ground level and re plant another quercus robur in another area of the garden in order to avoid it getting infected with the existing Meripilus Giganteus.
