@TIMONMyself and @Steve Bulman have agreed, if you don't like the drumming in this your banned for 1 month

Don't worry about the wetwood its of no concern in itself. What is of concern is the included bark that Garry mentioned. I would reduce the height of the tree to reduce the possibility of the tree splitting at the inclusion. The tree is relatively young and has a lot of growing to do so the landowner will have to expect further damage to the wall. Get a suitably qualified arborist to look at the tree in person

I wouldn't say numerous - not uncommon
-
Out of the 2 options you give, it would be considerably better for the tree to cut just above the previous old pruning cuts ( so that would be cutting the new growth only, to 2 -3 " above the old pruning points).

I was surveying at milnrow rd 2 - 3 months ago. What a fucking country we live in. I hope my kids leave this country when they are older. Give them an inch and they take a mile. If this was Eastern Europe or Russia these scum would be dead now.

Utility surveyor? Walking across the countryside seeing what trees need pruning away from powerlines. I can give you a lot more info if you like.

great scene - great acting

Yes Stubby rock drummers with a Jazz sensibility are my favourites. I also like Neil Peart and Stu Copeland rites

Its actually Phil Collins and Bill Bruford on this track. Chester Thompson plays on most of this live album though. I think Phil sacked Bill as he wouldn't play as he was told

ah yes seen this a while ago -clever

One for Timon

Sufficient - makes me laugh - between 3 and 10 yrs then ? who knows

This is what I would do if I was in the same position. Check if the tree is in a conservation area or covered by a TPO. If it is, I would contact the LA first. If the tree is not protected I would get an Arboricultural survey done on the tree and if it is recommended for a fell, get a tree surgeon to fell it. If it is dangerous make sure the survey states it will cause damage to your property if it falls over. Do not get a tree surgeon that is in anyway linked the company that carried out the survey. I would not know how I stand legally with this but I would take the chance all things considered. The above statement is not a recommendation to you or anybody else.

very good - great drumming - Stevie wonder groove

Its a crown Gall, a benign growth caused by bacteria. Its That would look nice with the bark stripped off and polished up. Might need to season it first though .

Are the wounds not open to fungal infection for up to 2 yrs? If so then perhaps not so important . The thinking on this may have changed now as this info was dredged from the vaults of my aging temporal lobes.
