I was thinking possibly wind scorch from that really cold spell 15 months ago, but you would expect other edge trees to have similar damage

Hi Gary - so you think the problem has started from the branches and not from the roots. I would be tempted to peel back some dead cambium on the trunk

Soil aeration would achieve instant soil compaction relief, then add much afterwards

it was just a thought Stubby -There is a lot more shock absorption in a regular tyre compared to a solid one. perhaps science has brought us along way since yesteryear

following on from Mr Training above It sounds like your nearly level 4 as it stands so not a big step for you. Level 4 would make you more employable for sure

ive had one come off a twist lock crab !- without a strop it would only take a snatch from an ill behaved branch and its gone - as we know

fair comment . Is it planning dept initially giving planning permission, then the Tree officer doing his bit? If so there should be some correspondence between the two?

Is the property a relatively new build - say in the last 10 yrs or so? If this is the case I can understand the councils feelings on this. Tree there long before there was a house built

It is certainly well mature enough for the dutch elm scolytus beetle to breed and infect the tree . It could be immune or just lucky so far it hasn't bee infected, It would be better propagating from cuttings than seed I think as genetically it would be identical to the parent tree. Also see this interesting link https://conservationfoundation.co.uk/projects/the-great-british-elm-experiment/

What is the stem diameter

great stuff - nice to see a healthy larger Elm. Do you have DED where you are or do you live in an isolated area

This Is how it is supposed go in vegetation management on Utilities. You are approached by a surveyor to discuss the tree work. The surveyor will propose a re pollard, if you are happy with this you sign for the work, if not the surveyor will propose an alternative. The willow seems to be around 3m from the line already, a directional prune to gain a 5 or 6m clearance could have been suggested as an alternative. This would have been more acceptable to you and you sign for this work. It would also have been enough clearance to keep the electricity company happy until the next cutting cycle.
