Looks abit like it tipped sideways off the Stump there Tane?Could you have crown lifted it untill there was enough clear trunk to have felled it through that gateway that I saw in the middle of the screen?

 

Fair enough I wasn't there,what was the reason for not climbing it?

Lol I bet some one didnt get paid for that job

Can't get my head round trashing a yew hedge to get the tree down ????

 

Yew, especailly.

 

Why didn't it get dismantled?

 

Barmey IMO

Place a mewp by a tree rocking due to root faliure? No wonder you trashed yours:001_tongue:

 

 

A hedge is minor damage in the sceme of things. Or maybe i'm just unrealistic, uncaring and callus?

Shows you don't use them often.

 

The mewp would be placed behind or infront of the house.
