Description

T1 Weeping Willow. Re-pollard back to previous pruning points. Tree is in fair condition , previously pollarded (several years ago). Regrowth branches have become heavy and are starting to break off in this windy location on lakeside. Property is let out to holiday makers, and there is a treehouse built under the canopy, so public safety is a concern. It is time to re-pollard the tree for safety reasons, and sensible maintenance regime.
