Yeah:thumbdown: the 7.5t we sometimes hire in couldn't get through the gates (which also ruled out a crane or a tracked compact crane as the gates are over a mile away from the tree). I was going to get a mini loader in but decided as i can get so close ill just block it up and stack it ready for the splitter at the yard.

 

Unlucky mate,bet that great lump took some blocking up? I bet there were shed loads of sawdust too...........habitat pile?! Haha

 

Mozza if I was doing that it would of been a constant angry Hadleigh interspersed with demoralised Hadleigh! Haha......

A couple of pictures from the last week. Working in the grounds of a beautiful Manor House, very tight access to the site but on the plus side we could get a transit under the tree.

 

Fine looking location for a big undertaking like that.

 

Must of been a big satisfaction to have finished.

 

What was the reason for the removal Ian?

The tree report pointed out a number of the flaws in its structure (although there was also some serious decay fungi hiding deep in the stem) and they didn't like the sound of it so they took it out rather than a planned staged reduction which still could of resulted in felling in x number of years.

 

 

Still haven't completely finished clearing up yet just running in and collecting a load of wood or two at the end of each day. But looking forward to finally getting off that one and onto the two large knackered oaks on the site.......

thanks Ian.

 

Any indication on which decay pathogen(s) were in attendance?

 

Not being nosey for any other reason than trying to tie in the pictures with reasons for removal etc.....

 

 

All helps with the overall picture of these things
