both guys were standing. the ground level as you see was raised and the tree removed for both H&S reason and the whole thing was on an embankment alongside a busy road and Magistrates court, with built up victorian walls that were being damaged. the whole area is being excavated and back filled once repairs are complete, then a replant.

one of today's jobs, taking cuttings of a lot of very old and dying bay willows and replanting along the river bank to regrow and help stabilize some rapidly eroding banks

Twas a night before Christmas and the owner of the property thought he heard what he thought was the picnic bench lifting and dragging across the outside terrace with the wind, what had really happened is that a large Beech had snapped about 20 ft up, smashed the top out of a lime, glanced off an Ash and smashed a couple of branches off a Horse Chestnut narrowly missing the garage, putting some dings in the Range Rover and the Mercedes hood and coming to rest on the oil tank.

 

Little weight reduction/reshape of the Chestnut, top the lime, remove any hangers, fun Friday.

 

Should title this post as 'Heading cuts after storm damage' then I would come across as a right smart barsteward.
