Does this sycamore require a cherry picker for a crown reduction?

Or just batter the top and leave the sides eh Josh? 😉

Sod it, just top it... That's what my local tree surgeon is advertising on the village Facebook 😂 lots of topping

Margaret robbed them to be fair so poor might be the wrong wording Khriss 😂

I’m with Kriss, wrong species in wrong place and it will just get out of hand. Just fell and replant with an nice ornamental tree. I like the ornamental rowans and the birds like the berries!

[Mick Dempsey]

It won’t get out of hand if it’s trimmed every few years, what’s so hard about that? It’s literally our job.

 

But no, that’s not in the program, the arbnazis want to fell anything that doesn’t conform and to fill our gardens with boring bloody rowans, cos their lecturer at arb college told em to.

I think you could make that into a decent looking tree with a relatively light reduction. Did one similar recently and used a re-direct pulley to allow me to anchor high and be able to get out onto the tips. Don’t really see the need to hire a platform but if you had one in the yard you’d be silly not to use it. Obviously it would depend on the clients spec, rape and shape Vs sympathetic reduction to give a nice shape, I’d be happy to do either
