Description

G001 - Group of Holm Oak (Quercus ilex) Prune primary and secondary branches overhanging the public house seating area back by 1-2m to appropriate points on the main stem or suitable secondary and sub-lateral branches, to reduce encroachment into the seating area and improve clearance for patrons. Selectively prune or remove branches that are contacting, or at risk of interfering with, the telephone cable running the length of the tree, to establish and maintain adequate clearance. Crown raise over the parking area and sheds to achieve approximately 4 m clearance above ground level by removing or shortening appropriate lower primary and secondary branches, and prune back any sub-lateral branches touching the sheds as necessary to prevent direct contact. No cuts shall exceed 50mm in diameter. Remove all arisings from site, leaving the area clean and tidy. All works to be carried out in accordance with BS3998:2010. Tree Work - Recommendations, using good arboricultural practice to minimise wounding and maintain a balanced crown form.
