Hi all :001_smile:

 

I am after some advice / opinions of the best thing to do to this Ash tree. It was pollarded around 5 - 6 years ago by someone else and now its blocking out light and requires attention once more.

 

One concern is its dropped some regrowth this year just gone, think this may be just wind effect on sail area of the poorly anchored regrowth, however targets are road, pedestrians and sheds so need the best action for this tree?

 

What would you do? Take it back and re-pollard or crown reduce to reduce sail area, or just thin it?

 

(yes it would make nice fire wood but felling isnt an option :biggrin: )

 

Sorry bout the pics, only had me mobile phone
