Proposal
Oak - This tree has an open basal cavity extending into the root plate and lower main stem, with visible evidence of decay fungi present. The tree exhibits a lean towards a significant target. Although the crown has been previously reduced, it retains substantial weight which may exacerbate loading on the affected area. To be reduced again but more heavily as opposed to last time.
