Description

London Planes: T192: Massaria Climbing Inspection Report shows early stage Massaria on a large lower limb and developed Massaria on large upper crown limb removal required. T229: Massaria Climbing Inspection report shows early stage Massaria on a large limb removal required. T370: RVL necessary 3 months - large branch at 15m SE approx. 8m in length and 300mm in diameter. T381: RVL necessary 3 months - Massaria large limb at 8m SW approx. 10m out on lateral limb 6m in length, 200mm diameter, Also large limb at 7m NW 4.5m, 200mm in diameter, Also large limb at 16m NW over road 4m length, 200mm diameter T721: RVL necessary 3 months - Massaria limb at 9m, S, 5m length and approx 300mm diameter T728: RS00 necessary 3 months ? heavily reduce the large Massaria affected limb at 7m NE (the end of the long lateral branch alongside the pavement) by approx. 3.5 m to reduce loading and stabilise the limb allowing for further monitoring to evaluate the extent of development. T743: RS00 necessary 3 months ? reducing the extended terminal branches on the limb with the cavity at 15m to the west, and the large branch at 15m NE 150mm diameter, by approximately 2 m, to reduce loading on the decayed limb cavities, to minimise the potential for major limb failure within the garden square. T889: RL00 necessary 3 months ? reducing the terminal branches growing from the large limb at 10m N (with a cavity within the wound) 8m length 150mm, by approx. 2 m to reduce loading and minimise the potential for limb failure due to decay and cavities present. T921: RVL necessary 3 months - Large branch at 7m NE 4m in length and 450mm diameter attached beneath main union of tree. T959: RVL necessary 3 months - large Massaria limb at 12m SW 8m length and 300mm diameter
