Thoughts on Lime Tree?

[foofodder]

What are people thoughts on this Lime, has a large cavity on a lower stem. Tree has some die back in the crown but that is all.

 

Tree is located in a cricket club, which has a lot of public traffic due to this I say fell is.

 

Cheers

 

Guys

Reduce it to lower the overall dynamics on the sail & the lever arm.

 

Looks healthy enough to keep it maintained.

 

 

 

What does the client want?

I agree....

 

Be a shame to get rid.

 

A good amount of weight reduction would help.

 

But knowing how cautious people are with health and safety etc I can see why they may want it removed.

Thanks Guys, Client wants it removed. I did think about deduction myself. They've had too many trees come down at there club so there concerned about safety obviously.

If in doubt get it owt, too much at stake if it fails with the where there is blame there is a claim society we live in. That's my opinion any way.

That tree is in good health and can compensate, a pollard would suit both client and tree retention objectives IMO

looks ideal for a decent reduction and Cobra brace it . but i guess it depends on the clients thoughts on having to spend money yearly having the tree inspected and Re braced and thinned/reduced when needed .
