Bit of a scary lean on that one mark. Does it have a full canopy?

Tons of die back and as you mention a fair lean.

 

Sounded the roots with a rubber hammer and things sounded amiss.

 

Planning on getting a resistograph in so we can work out the best way to bring her down.

Carefully with a mewp I'd say on that 1,, if you can post up the resulting images from the test as I find them quite interesting.

Will do. Depending how far gone it is, we're thinking a crane and small picks. Target central around the tree...
