T1 – Eucalyptus Proposed works: Re-pollard the eucalyptus tree back to its established previous pruning points, removing approximately 2–2.5 metres of regrowth. Retain the existing pollard framework and carry out no cuts below the previous pruning points. Reason for works: The tree has an established history of pollarding and has produced vigorous regrowth from the previous pruning points. It is situated within a very small front garden, immediately adjacent to the property boundary and a busy main road. The proposed works form part of the tree’s ongoing cyclical management. Returning the regrowth to the established pruning points will maintain the tree at a size appropriate for its restricted location, manage the increasing length and weight of the regrown stems, and retain a compact, balanced crown. The work will preserve the existing pollard structure and allow the tree to be retained safely and sustainably within its current setting.
