Is this tree going to die and dangerous

[Bigben143]

Hi I'm after some advice, is this oak tree dieing ? If so will it be dangerous any time soon? This was recently done in the last week. 

 

Thank you

At least if it does need work they can power the chipper from the PTO on the tree.

Something tells me your Councils money issues will soon get a boost of around £20,000 and a reinstated TPO'd tree at cost to yourself (if its PTO'd of course!)

Assuming the operation was performed before the TPO was on it, what’s the crime?

The chain of events can really and truly only be known by the council and big”bad”ben123 😬

 

I can only hope for Ben, that the council are slack as he says they are. Otherwise he maybe taking another mortgage out to pay the fine 👍🤣

Whoever did it should have his hands cut off.

Gulp.

 

 

 

Forget that half-hearted flesh wound.   I'm sure I have actually cut down dozens of oak trees bigger (and potentially far nicer) that that.... 

 

....Cut 'em down, I did.... and had them chipped up.

 

AND (tart that I am) I just did it for the money.  (made a bit of a living out of it, to be honest).

 

I am clearly a bad, bad man.

 

 

I am sorry.

AND I abused a PTO by not chaining the guard up properly.

Your tree, your land, your responsibility, you and your neighbours want it gone, no TPO.

 

Why didn’t you just have it removed?

Nut shell ...

I fail to understand what the OP thought he could achieve with cutting into the trunk. Regarding damage to nearby buildings - what was there first.

Question open to anyone.

Didn’t really answer my question unless I’m missing something.
