Thought that was why. Same reasons we removed a load of sycamores off the embankment at norwich castle.

 

 

I was standing on and around roots fully covered in bark. Other trees had moved other stones which were becoming precarious.

 

Our tidying up was helped massively by the tractor. Got all the logs chip and rakings of the footpath and scooped it up. Saved loads of time!

Job in Salford today. Road closure. Getting the trees off the top of the wall. 4 of us on site from 7-5. Engineering company came in with a 40t crane to lift some coping stones that a silver birch had lifted from growing under it. Turns out they couldn't lift it. Sandstone wouldn't anchor their lifting plate properly. Bit of a shambles on their part!

 

Our part went well. Landy full of chip around 3-4 cube. Transit of logs. Then tractor trailer 3/4 chip and 1/4 logs and rakings.

 

Had plenty drama with pedestrians calling us some colourful names because we stopped them walking under a crane and through a work site.

200 year old cedar that passed away some 10 years ago.

I've put a video of the stem being felled on our FB page SARL Le Jardinier Anglais.

To date the largest tree in mass we've removed although many taller.

1.8m dbh and 23m tall.

Stump was HUGE and has produced a cool 6m cube of chip which I will sell for mulch once it's matured.

Estimated 16 tonnes of usable wood has been given to locals.

30m3 of rakings, bark, brown rot etc to the tip.

I was doing a light reduction today, singing and happy in my work, and well, I got quite a shock!
