It must have been pitch black in that house before you did that! It's a wonder they didn't want it taking down, must like the privacy I suppose? Good job all the same 😀

its on a estate in a conservation area so all we could do was prune it.

Ah I see. Looks nice now so worth keeping hey 😀

ok. this one aint pretty! last time anyone did anything to this was after the 87 storm!! lots of decay from old pruning wounds meant a 4-8m off alround. managed to keep some growth but as I had a small target area and lots of sheds and summer houses had to do some big rigging which took its toll on the growth I wanted to retain (brittle black pop). pics are a bit crap but it was 30m when I started. took 2 hard days.

Big old H. chestnut from yesterday, some gnarly cracks and reactions from previous pseudomona (HCBC) infection.
