Baby Euc: Spetchley Estate

[Andy R]

a few pics from a lovely day at Spetchley Estate earlier in the year...just been to price up some more work there so hopefully going back soon, they have some huge cedars and oaks there.

one more plus bonus cedar pic. The cedar has a bit of a back story, something to do with a plane and the world war, sadly I was sceptical of the tale sthey were telling me but nevertheless a few of the staff turned out to watch for some reason...just a dead wood, only couple of pics

Nice pics. The deadwood off that cedar is the worlds best firewood. fantastic stuff.

I can appreciate some people may see that as a shortcut/unnecessary harm to the tree etc...but there was nothing but deadwood until right in the top of the main stem. Baby gaffs and very sharp...In my view I did very little damage...am I going to need my flame suit now?

you'll only see me use secondary anchor's when they are needed...sorry, I am just set in my ways and don't see the necessity to overcomplicate the job...each to their own though, I don't disagree with anyone who has a view different to my own.
