  (amended) G1: Aesculus hippocastanum x 3. T1 - radial reduction no more than 4m. The trees have grown as a group, and working from south to north, the second and third trees exhibit serious structural and physiological defects that render retention in their current form unfeasible. Tree 2 has a significant included union at 2m, a cavity at 5m W aspect (500 x 400mm), and a large cavity and bark de-laminantion at 12m E aspect where its appears a top has failed historically. Tree 3 has lost a large limb historically, with extensive cambial death around the stem at 1m, and colonisation by Cerioporous squamosus (moderate significance on this species). There is also an included union at 3m. Overall, the trees have grown as a group, and the failure of one of them is likely to result in upper canopy failures of the others into the direction of the prevailing wind. At present, upper canopy failure is entirely foreseeable, so a significant reduction is necessary. Reduce in height by 8 - 10m, to leave a finished height of 10m.
