T1 Sycamore Tree is located on western boundary of the property next to gate on Lamberts Lane. To fell the tree due to extensive heartwood decay. A cavity is visible at 6 m. on the east side of thetrunk. The cavity has an opening of 50cm by 20cm. An aerial inspection of the tree has been carried out which shows that due to heart wood decay only 40% of the overall diameter of trunk remains. The trunk is hollow for at least 80cm above the cavity, but the level of discharge coming from the cavity would indicate that the decay is linking to other cavities higher up on the truck. The tree is now considered hazardous and is in close proximity to both a road and properties, removal is the only option to mitigate potential liability for the land owner.
