Description

5 Day Tree Notification - Horse Chestnut in Tenterden recreation ground over high pedestrian area and lane. Tenterden conservation area. Previous stem removal and reductions. One further stem now completely dead. Two remaining with significant die back. Decay through centre of crown break. We would like to monolith to crown break. Hopefully leaving plenty of epicormic to keep it going. Let me know if you think otherwise. I have a couple more dead trees etc to follow also.
