A sweet chestnut at home that died for no obvious reason..
And a dying sycamore near to a newly built house.. was probably only 2 inches either side of good wood.
Both easy jobs but good practice.

Horse chestnut (which was pretty much upright 30 years ago) with progressive lean over pond. Recent shear crack, dropped a bit more. Reduced to mitigate the failure, good for another 10 years, will bush out again. Provides good shade for the fishies. Dragged out all the timber and brash with a pull line, pulley & landrover.

We decided to clear out most of the yard as we started to lose working space. 7 loads of woodchip and 3 arb waste wood. I was really impressed with the loader and how good an experienced operator is on one of them.

Nice work, definitely need machinery for a job like that.

Question, was that a recent job? Leaves still look pretty good considering leaf miner and all that.
